SEND does not work first click

I have created 2 forms.  The first is sent to recipients and when they click
reply, the second appears and needs to be filled in.

I have worked through many of the issues here in the forum but one remains.

On the reply form after all items have been completed, the person clicks on
SEND and nothing appears to happen.  Actually, the original note is updated
in the Inbox list to indictate "You replied on....." but nothing is sent or
recorded in SENT Items.

If there are validation errors, corrections cause SEND to go immediately
because you have actully clicked it a 2nd time.  

If your replies all pass validation the first time, then it takes 2 clicks
of SEND.

The silly part is that I think I had this solved in one of the earlier
iterations of the forms but now cannot find what control is doing this to me.

Thank you.

Does the form have code? Are you handling any Send event and setting Cancel
= True in any cases?

Ken:
I apologize as I meant to (and forgot to) include in the original post that
I have not added any code.  I have changed TAB values in the Advanced
Properties area but notthing like VB / VBA code (as  I understand it) has
been added.

Is there someplace that I should be looking for Send events?  I have tried
to look for 'send' but have not found anything.

Other than possible interference from some other code, any code in your own
form would be in the form code page. You can open that up in design mode and
see, but if you didn't add code yourself and it's your form design there
wouldn't be code there. Code doesn't add itself.

One extra comment:
If I am in design mode and do the 'run this form', a single click on Send
works.

Theoretically there should be no difference other than possibly in run mode
the form may or may not have been previously published. In a form not run
from design mode it has to be published first.

I'm out of ideas, I just don't see why it should behave differently unless
some field validation is preventing Send from working for some odd reason.

Send fails if a field previously marked for validataion (entry required) is
deleted from form.  Can't get rid of validation.
Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook] - 17 Jun 2009 15:49 GMT
You would need to re-add a field of the same type and name to the form, then
remove the validation and then remove the field. If you just remove a field
with validation without removing the validation first the form will still be
looking to validate that now non-existent field.
