Hi There..

I have been looking for a while to do this, but all attempts fail
programmatically, so I hope someone might have an answer (better way)
to do this.

I have a Public folder created as a Mail/Post. This public folder has
an email address. People out side the company send to this Public
folder. The item of course is displayed in the MAIL form look. What
happens then, is someone sorts this email out and "drags" the item
into a corresponding folder underneath this Public Folder.

Ok, at some stage, I need to use my custom mail looking form, or have
the Item saved in my custom form when it arrives or when the item is
dragged into one of the subdirectories below it, it inherits my form.

What is so special about my form.. ONE FIELD. I need at any stage
above, for my ONE FIELD to get a 0 (zero) placed into it so some VBA
scipts run against these.

I have been using a FOLDER USER-DEFINED FIELD to try this out, but I
cannot reference it (through VBA script) unless the same field name
exists on the form.

I have tested this by applying my form (by using the design this form
and saving it with the one field and the 0 in it) and my VBA scripts
work fine, and I can read the folder user-defined field.

Can anyone think of an idea to help me out? Can I use an exisiting
field, but change the Column header?

Thanks..
Robert
