I've been trawling the internet for about 90 minutes now and I simply
can't find exactly what I need or why it's so hard to acheive.

I want to click a SINGLE button to open a PERSONAL form (we use them
simply as an email template to users for support requests)
Can this be done?

I do _not_ want to publish this form to a folder then click the folder
(or a shortcut to the folder) THEN click actions.
I would be happy with 2 clicks.

One to open the "Chose form" box and then one to select the form from
PERSONAL.
I do not want to click once to "Chose form" (I've got this far) and
then click a drop down box to change from "organisational" to
"personal"

I'm thinking a few people have wanted to acheive this or so deja tells
me but very few solutions.

for reference I have outlook 2003 so it might be a new feature?

Yes, I know about this also
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Outlook.exe" /c
"IPM.Note.<form name>"

This makes an icon on my desktop or C: or quick launch but it doesn't
make a shortcut in the outlook toolbar.

Can anyone help me at all? :(

Thanks.
