We have a webform that gets emailed to one of our users automatically. Since
moving to Outlook 2007, the form seems to transfer in a text mode and she can
no longer see the data that was entered in the form. PLEASE HELP!
Thanks,
Christa
Outlook 2007 does not support the <form> element or any form control elements in HTML messages. Users will need to use the Other Actions | View in Browser command

May I ask why this functionality is no longer supported? It does not make
sense to me to take something away and make it more difficult. Is the work
around going to disappear without warning at some point as well?
Thanks,
Christa

It's part of the change from using IE to using a Word component to render HTML messages. I suspect that security issues were also involved.
