Multiple Questions : Content not saved , ....

[Tom Gilis]

Hi ,

I have some experience in VBA an VB. Now for
functionality reasons I'm programming a form like a
journal. The problem is you can't redesign the existing
Journal , so I made a second page (which later is going
to becom the main page). So The situation is now : you
start a journalentry en you have to tabs , one original
journal and one form I made. On the form I made , I made
a Combobox where yo can select the compagny (it is
automatically filed with a part of our public folder ,
each compagny has a public folder). But when I save this
(Button 'save and close') , the value's in the combobox
are not saved , so when you review the journal , the cbo
is empty..How can I fix that?

Did you bind the combo box to an Outlook property (using the Value tab of the control's Properties dialog)?

Thnkx that was indeed the thing I need to do to solve it.

Next question : I made another Combobox for the entry
type , I wanted to do the same thing with it but it
doesn't work , it only displays one string from the
original content of the entry type combobox...

Sorry it wasn't very clear

You know the default Journal. I need to change the
textbox with Compagny in a combobox and I need to add a
textbox and a boolean value (Checkbox). Can't I change
the design from the default Journal Form with al the code
behind to start and stop the timer? I think that must
work not?

BTW : Sue , Thnkx for the effort , you already helped me
alot...

No, you can't modify the default page of the journal form. Make your customizations on a custom page and, if you want, hide the original default page. The JournalItem object does support StartTime and StopTimer methods you can use with command buttons on a custom page.
