Good day all:
I have a two-part question. I have developed a simple custom form (9 fields)
to collect information from a group of employees. I work in a large
organization that uses Outlook/exchange for mail services.
I developed the form in a .pst file I have set-up on my laptop for
development purposes. Eventually I want to distribute the form to the
employee group and want the responses posted to a public folder that I have
access to. I have used the code with the necessary corrections from the
excellent developer resource Microsoft Outlook Programming by Sue Mosher,
but the code has no effect. When I initiate (??? open) the form, I get a
dialog box directing me to choose a folder for the custom form.
I'm assuming that I've referenced the incorrect event handler in the VB
script editor, but from what I can tell, the script is not accessed at all.
I've tried several of the event hander choices that would seem to make sense
for the save action. What event handler would I use to correctly call this
code? (Please excuse any incorrect references to programming; I know just
enough to be dangerous...)
Secondly, based on the answer to the first Yes/No question, the remaining
questions change. I have separated the questions specific to each answer
(Yes or No) and placed them in separate frames. I want either one or the
other frame to be visible based on the answer to the first question. I've
looked around but have not found the appropriate method for referencing the
value of the first variable to change the visibility value of the specific
frame. Also, can I place the frames directly on top of each other and toggle
btw each frame dependent on the answer to the first question. What I'm
trying to avoid is a blank area on the form if I place one frame below the
other.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
