Default Outlook Task forms not displaying all tabs

In response to the answers to my questions on microsoft.public.outlook:

The forms are being published to either the Standard Form Library, Personal
Folders or being saved to another location (such as a shared network drive).

With regards to the Organizational Forms Library, is this a feature of
Exchange? We are not running under Exchange, just a series of individual
Outlook clients.

Finally, there is no "About This Form" option under the help menu.

Regards,

Noel

A little more info:

The forms which have been customised can be opened on another version of
Outlook from a shared drive using "Tools / Forms / Choose Form"

However I don't think this will solve the problem of people being able to
email each other the Task Forms.

Having read the post "Froms" from "HELP!!" on 12/04/2007 I believe we may be
in a similar situation. We have created a Task Form which is an appraisal
template which is sent to an employee for them to fill in and send back. The
advice given to the original poster was that Outlook Custom Forms were not
suitable for this.

Noel

When you speak of forms opened from a shared drive, do you mean .oft file templates? Those won't work for your purpose in recent versions of Outlook. You need to be using published forms.
