how to unhide contents in personal form library?

[laboheme3023]

I've created personal forms in Outlook that restrick reply all or forward
capability. I used the instruction from MS Office Online. I publish them to
the personal forms library as directed in the instruction. However, when I
try to choose when of them to compose an e-mail, they are not displayed. If
I attempt to create and publish another personal form, the ones I previously
created appear but marked as "hidden." How do I unhide these so I can
actually choose them?

Open the form in design mode and, on the (Properties) page, clear the check box for "Use only for responses."

Thanks, Sue...

How does the "use only for responses" work? Do you create a separate form
with only this block checked for replies rather than e-mails you compose?

 

[Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]]

Yes, that's an option used when you want to create a form that is used only for an action on the (Actions) page of a form or through code and won't be invoked directly by the user in the UI.

Forgot to mention that you need to republish the form after you uncheck that box.

Sue:
How do I unhide the form. In 2007, I choose Toos, Forms, Design a Form.
When I select my form which has the <hidden> next to it, it opens as if I was
wanting to do a new form. None of the expected fields are on it.
Thanks,
Hope

hlock, what fields are you expecting to see? Does your form have both compose and read layouts? What type of form?
