using hyperlink to relay public form updates

[digihoo]

Hi,

I have a custom Task form in a Public folder.

The first user opens it and enters data, and an email with a hyperlink
to that form is sent to Marketing during the Item_Write event.

Marketing is able to launch the form from the hyperlink, fill in some
fields, and then, on the second Item_Write event (I'm actually using a
boolean variables), an email with a hyperlink to that form is sent
back to the first user.

The problem is that the first user can't see any of the data that
Marketing has entered, nor can anyone else, except for the Marketing
user.

Also, in the Public Folder, when the form is launched by anyone but
Marketing, only the first user's data is visible.

I have checked to make sure that all controls are bound to fields, and
that the correct properties are being used.

Can anyone please help me?

Thanks

How are you sending the hyperlink and are you saving the form before or
after the hyperlink is set?

Yes, i am saving the form before inserting the hyperlink. Here is the
code I am using to insert the link:
MyItem.Body = MyItem.Body & "<Outlook:\\Public Folders\All Public
Folders\New Job Forms\~>"

I don't think this is the culprit, though, because, hyperlink aside,
even when other users got out to the Public folder and launch the form
manually, they still can not see what Marketing has added. (?)
