Outlook 2003 - Close parent form before opening child form
Hi Sue, and txs for your reply.
The form is a very simple one, and has just two fields: COMMENTS and
HISTORY (both multiline text fields).
Hereīs an example of the way the form will work:
User A opens the form (Tools/Form/Choose Form), types in a few
comments in the COMMENTS texbox, then sends the form to user B.
Before the form is sent:
1.- the current date and time are added to the userīs comments
2.- the contents of the COMMENTS field are added to the HISTORY field
3.- the COMMENTS field is cleared.
User B opens the form from his/her Inbox, clicks on Reply, types his/
her comments in the COMMENTS field and sends the form to user C.
Before the form is sent, date and time are added to userīs
comments.... and so on.
The forms that arrive in the usersī Inboxes are what I call "parent"
forms. Users open the parent forms and then click on Reply, launching
what I call a "child" form - the one they will use to type in their
comments.
Obviously, when the child form is launched, the parent form remains in
the background. Once an user sends out the child form, he will still
have to close the parent one.
Hope that this information will clarify what I am trying to do. Txs a
lot again for your reply!
Best,
R.
