Hi All,

I've created a VBA form which connects to a SQL database and lets a
user record their flexi time in the office.

How do I have the form display in Outlook? I'd like to house it in a
public folder. The form detects the logged in user and displays
appropriately so I just need to find out how to have the form display
in outlook.

Total newb to this so apologies if the question is badly phrased,
maningless, etc

You're confusing VBA user forms and Outlook custom forms -- not an unusual newbie detour. They're not the same at all and cannot be substituted one for another. If you want an Outlook custom form that you can use to create items in a public folder, you'll need to start over using the Outlook form designer. The information on the page at http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=35 might be useful to you if you're new to custom forms.
