Script to send with custom form

[Paul]

Hi,

I'm using outlook 2003.

I've created an custom form that I would like to use. And I've got a question;
Is it possible that when I send to form, the recieveing end triggers a code
or script when opening or reading the e-mail? If so, how would I set this up?

Cheers,

Paul

That's possible only within your own organization, and only if you can
publish to the Organizational Forms library on the server. See

Sue,

What I would like to accomplish is that when the receipent reads or opens
the e-mail I send him it automatically runs a code that will publish a .oft,
that is located in a map in our shared network drive, into their personal
folders library.
I can't publish in the organizational library.

Is this possible? And can you help me with the code to accomplish this?

Cheers,

Paul

Did you look at the page I suggested? It explains that if you can't publish
to Org Forms, the ony way to get a form to run code is to publish to each
user's Personal Forms library. How likely is that?

I can't publish in the organizational library.

Give the form to your IT department and let them publish it.
