Custom Outlook forms are customized versions of the standard forms in most
cases. You cannot change that main page in an appointment form, you'd have
to copy everything to one of the P.x tabs and the date/time controls used by
Outlook aren't exposed to the programmer. You have to use 3rd party
controls.

Outlook forms are not coded in VBA, they are coded in VBScript.

See www.outlookcode.com for lots of examples of customizing forms,
publishing them and replacing the default forms with customized ones.

I've got to check out wether it's possible to vhange the default layout of
the new appointment in outlook 2000, 2003.

What I want is, when I open the calendar i.e in oullok 2003 and click new
appointment. I get up a default form where I can adjust time and so on. I
want to insert a new checkbox under the all day event checkbox so when
this is checked I need to update the subject field with a default text I
want to insert.

Is this possible? Can this be deployed to an exchange server? Can this be
done only by using VBA? Does anyone know where I can get examples for how
to do this....? I've programmed VBA in excel for many years, but when
changing to outlook it seems like it's very painfull.
