MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Forms / February 2006Color Coding or other "obvious"
Can you highlight the title bar of a custom form in a different object with a trigger (I.E. checkbox) or something. Specifically what I"m looking for, is to put a check box in the custom form that will cause the form to reorganize-refile, or some other way make itself stand out among the other forms in the folder. This could be used, for example, if a form is "finished" and checking the "finished" box makes the form gray out or line-through or something. Thanks! Sounds like you want to modify the current view to use some automatic formatting rules. Automatic formatting is a feature of the view, not the form.

One other (similar) question: On the Outlook bar, if you get a new e-mail, for example, the folder BOLDS and a # appears next to the folder showing you you have unread mail. Is it possible to create that effect with new items in a public folder (so the folder itself bolds on the bar, letting you know something has been added or modified there?) > Sounds like you want to modify the current view to use some automatic formatting rules.
