I have created a custom form in Outlook 2002 and it worked great on my old
laptop. I am now using a new laptop and want to use that custom form and now
get this message: 'An error has occurred registering the form in the OLE
registry."

I have gone into the Degisn Form, saved it with a new name and published it
with the new name. I have gone in the Contacts, Properties and have selected
to always use this form and also forms management selecting the new form. I
have also cleared the cache. Not too sure what else to do. Please help.

resolution to this issue. Please help.

Use Process Monitor to see which part of the registry cannot be
written to when you try to open the custom form.

Maybe your user account is missing write access in some part
of the registry, which you might need to fix with regedit.

SvenC,

Thank you for the response. I will try the Process Monitor and see how that
works. As for write privileges, I am signed in as an Administrator and should
have full rights. Let me know if I'm missing something concerning this.

nSvenC,

From what I can tell in Process Monitor, it says NameNotFound, or
FileNotFound. I don't understand this as the form I want is in the Forms
Management areas, Personal Forms Library and the Standard Forms Library. I
have gone into the Contact Properties and made sure that the form to be used
is prominent. Any clues you have give me I appreciate.

Which files or reg keys are missing?

It might be quite normal if some are missing because some form parts
might be registered in hkcu and not hklm and also some parts might
be optional.

SvenC,

I now think I can read Process Monitor correctly, so that means the previous
post was not accurate. The message when I try to open the custom form is:

Under column 'Operation' it says 'CreateFile' and the 'Result' column says
'NAME COLLISION'

Another line says:

Under column 'Operation' it says 'QueryOpen' and the 'Result' column says
'FAST IO DISSALLOWED'

Thanks again.

Please post the complete lines. Without that knowbody here can have a
clue if those lines are relevant.
