MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / February 2006Custom forms writen in 2000 and read in 2003
Hello, I have writen a custon contact form in Outlook 2000 and Page2 page3 ect.. will not show up in 2003.. Any Ideas....lMark Is this a published form or an .oft file? If the latter, have Outlook 2003 users open it with the Tools | Forms | Choose Form command.

Any Ideas....lMark Sue, This file is a "Outlook item Template" when I e-mail it to someone with Outlook 2003 they can open it as a attachment fron their e-mail to view it, but it come up as the "standard contact template" and they cant see any Custom changes. The outlook 2000 user can see all the changes what im I doing that I shoudent be. I have a feeling that it is in the way I save it becouse version 1 of this form work for 2003 users and later versions dont. Amy Ideas....Mark > Is this a published form or an .oft file?

Any Ideas....lMark Sue, That did not work but here how it dose Here’s the steps I took: Select File -> New -> Choose Form Under “Look In” select “User Templates in File System” option Click Browse Locate Template you sent (I’ve been dropping them on my desktop) Open template then displays your template. Thanks....Mark > Repeating: Have Outlook 2003 users open it with the Tools | Forms | Choose Form command.

Any Ideas....lMark Those are the right steps to run a saved .oft file. So, you're saying that the Outlook 2000 user can see all the form's pages, but the Outlook 2003 user can see only the built-in pages? And what you're sending is the .oft file as an attachment? Does version 1 still work? (You did keep a backup copy as an .oft file, right?)
