Default Creating a message form I get "One or more ActiveX could not be..

.... not be displayed because either:
1) Your security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page, or
2) You have blocked a publisher of one of the controls.

As a result, the page may not display correctly."

So, I created the form anyway. After I published it to one of my folders I
open it. Everything looked fine. I sent a test to myself and it came back
with the same message and blank. My guess is I need to ask my Admin to do
something, but what?

I've seen that happen when the Word email editor settings allow transmission of SmartTag information.

In any case, publishing a message form to a folder isn't going to make it usable. A message form generally needs to be published to the Organizational Forms library or to each user's Personal Forms library.

Default Creating a message form I get "One or more ActiveX could not b

Thank you for your response. I think we may be getting there.

I asked my Admin to publish the form to our Organizational Forms Library,
but when I went to "choose" it there were no forms in that library for me to
choose from. This may be a separate issue, but one we will have to resolve as
well.

My first sign of a problem was when I began to design the form and received
the message about issues with ActiveX controls. I am assuming that should not
have happened if our settings were correct.

Do you have a recommendation to resolve the "ActiveX controls" issue so that
a basic user can create forms and send to the Admin to publish to the
Organizational Forms Library for everyone to use?

If you're using a published form and have WordMail set not to transmit SmartTags, you should see no ActiveX warnings when you use those forms. You can save forms to give to the admin either as .oft files or as .fdm files (using the Forms Manager dialog).

The administrator should check to make sure that all users have Read access to the Org Forms library.
