When creating a new form, I inadvertently inserted an image to the Message
text form field (it now shows as an attachment). Now, every time I want to
add a new Message field, the image is attached. How do I delete this image
and restore the default "plain" field? I can't seem to delete it out of the
form.

In design mode, add the message control. Run the form, delete image, save as .oft file. Open .oft in design mode to finish your customization.

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public
.outlook.program_forms

Thank you, Sue... I'll be sure to post future ones "down the hall"... your
solution was quite helpful (I'll sleep well tonight!)
