I created a task-based form in Outlook 2003 that included a textbox and check
boxes, real simple. I published the form. Now when i use the form, the text i enter in the textbox is never saved. the textbox is always empty when i open the said task.

Sounds like you only added a text box, not a field where Outlook can store the data. Check on the Properties dialog for the control, at the top of the Value tab.

If not, the contents of the control disappear with the form. Only fields are saved with the data item. -- Hollis Paul Mukilteo, WA USA

What type of control should we use to keep the information in the fields?
I have a text field, wordwrap, multi-line box that will not hold the information that end-users need to place in the box. How do I fix this? -- "To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are."

To fix it, you need to bind the control to an Outlook property. Do this on the control's Properties dialog, at the top of the Value tab.

Okay ... I think I did this. I went to the box, choose a field I created,
applied, saved and published. Still not printing contents. -- "To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are."

..That was a typo ... I "changed both" the COMPOSE and the READ pages. I can
see it if I make is a drop down and type in .. but I cannot see anything when I make it a text box. My process: Off of the CONTROL BOX TOOLBAR I dragged the TEXT box to where I wanted it Under in the PROPERTIES BOX; 2nd TAB; I clicked on NEW; created a field Made it a TEXT field; WORD WRAP; APPLY. When I type information in this box and hit send it doesn't show up on the email ... What step am I missing? -- "To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are."

What is the name of the field you created? Did you then repeat the process on the read page layout -- adding a text box and binding to the same field (or just dragging that field from the Field Chooser to save time)?
You didn't answer my question about the All Fields page. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Sam" wrote in message ... .That was a typo ...
