item.close not work after upg to 2003

[sverne]

Server is Exchange 5.5 and Outlook 2000 clients. 2000 Clients able to
use public folder form (typw = Post) without any problems. I upgraded
one client PC to Office 2003 and now Outlook reports "MS Office
Outlook: Unable to save this item" when I click on my form button to
save newly created custom form.

I need this form to work with both 2000 and 2003 clients.

Client selects public folder (not using Favorites), and then clicks on
New Post to this folder. Correct form appears. Save button calls:

sub ButnSave_Click()
if item.userproperties.find("contact name") = "" then
msgbox "Contact Name Too Short",,"Error"
exit sub
end if

if item.userproperties.find("contact company") = "" then
msgbox "Company Too Short",,"Error"
exit sub
end if

if item.userproperties.find("contact company") = "Selection" then
msgbox "Pick a real Company name",,"Error"
exit sub
end if

if item.userproperties.find("ShortDescription") = "" then
msgbox "Short Case Description Too Short",,"Error"
exit sub
end if


if item.userproperties.find("assigned to") = "" then
msgbox "Must assign incident to someone",,"Error"
exit sub
end if

if item.userproperties.find("Closed") <> 0 then
if item.userproperties.find("Date Closed") = #1/1/4501# then
item.userproperties.find("Date Closed") = Now()
msgbox "Complete Date set to TODAY, Please verify this is
correct and Save again",,"Error"
exit sub
end if
end if

item.close(0)
End Sub


Script debugger comes up and complains about the item.close(0) line
with no real great error message. Any ideas?

The CANCEL button works fine.
If I open an existing saved form and then use the Save button, it work
fine. If I change anything on the form and then use the Save button
same error.

If I open a saved form and then click on File, Save, I get "A field o
this form requires a value". If I do the exact same thing on a Outloo
2000 client, it works fine (even if I change something on the form).
added all the fields from the Field Chooser to the form to verify non
had the Required checkbox (none did).

So, it is something that Outlook 2003 has an issue with. I hav
re-published the form using 2000 and no difference. It happens on bot
PCs running Outlook 2003.

I do not want to edit and republish the form in 2003 for fear o
screwing up all existing 2000 clients.
