User defined field with a colon in its name....

A

ASP.Confused

Hello everyone!

I am having an issue with MS Outlook custom forms and
retrieving a specific value from our Exchange store.

Within Outlook, a user-defined field contains a colon in
it's name...for example "testing:"

Could anyone tell me what this field would be named on an
Exchange server? When I set up my dataset with the colon
in the name, I get an error stating that a name cannot
contain a colon.

If it happens to be that I cannot access the field because
of it's name, then how do I rename a field within an
Outlook form? The users of this form have already started
entering information into it, and if we just create a new
field, then we will loose all of the data they entered
(and it happens to be a very important field!)

I did try using Exchange Explorer to view the user-defined
fields, but the one with the colon did not appear.

I don't know if this will help any, but I am currently
using a library called ExDAV to connect into Exchange.
Also, the entries I am working with in the Exchange Store
are appointment entries.

If anyone have any suggestions, they would be greatly
appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!! :)
