MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Forms / May 2008Outlook design form, field editing.
Is it possible to attcahed a drop down list such as used in Excel Validation, to allow choise in a Field within a self designed message form in Outlook, to allow a choice? Yes, you can use a combo box in a message form that is published to the Organizational Forms library and used only internally in an Exchange environment.

Hi Sue, thanks for this, but sorry for my ignorance on this as I have taut myself for creation of the form. Are you suggesting I publish the Form to the internal Organisation library, and then create a local address book they access to choose from. What if it is a list of cost centres I need them to choose from? > Yes, you can use a combo box in a message form that is published to the Organizational Forms library and used only internally in an Exchange environment. > > > Is it possible to attcahed a drop down list such as used in Excel Validation, > > to allow choise in a Field within a self designed message form in Outlook, to > > allow a choice? What you want to do requires a form published to the Organizational Forms library. If you can't meet that requirement, then you would have to publish it to every user's Personal Forms library. See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=61 for more information on this prerequisite. I don't know what "a local address book" has to do with your original question. You can use code behind the form to populate a combo box with whatever row data you need; see http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=32 SignatureSue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 > Hi Sue, thanks for this, but sorry for my ignorance on this as I have taut > myself for creation of the form.
