Your manual is both out of date and incomplete. The reason your colleagues
are not seeing the fields is that you never added them to the read layout.
If you have any code behind the form, checking the "send form definition
with item" box will guarantee that code doesn't run in any version of
Outlook from Outlook 2000 SP2 on.

Thank you, Sue. I should have mentioned we are using
Outlook 2000. Does this change things at all?
By "adding them to the read layout", that means I not only
have to add the fields on the Compose Page, I also have to
add them to the Read Page?
Thanks again,
Rosemary

yes, you have to add fields to the read layout if you want them to be
visible.
