Default Outlook Forms Not Working with latest updates

Our custom Outlook forms did not work until we removed the 2 latest Outlook
updates OUTLOOKff and OLKINTLff. I'm not sure where to post this as I
couldn't find any email for update problems. So since I have posted a problem
re this today on another post - here it is!

Another Microsoft issue!

You didn't say what version of Outlook you're using (include build number) or what kind of forms these are -- published forms or .oft files.

Default Outlook Forms Not Working with latest updates

I also have a very similer issue. Ever since I installed OUTLOOKff the
custom plugin we are developing no longer works.

Outlook version : 2003 (11.8002.6568) SP2

The following code now causing a crash on startup.
hr = namspace-GetDefaultFolder( Outlook:lFolderContacts,
&contactsFolder );

The hot fix that causes this is OUTLOOKff. Everytime. Does anyone know
what to do to fix this?

TIA,
Jason

It is Outlook 2003 that is having the trouble opening form templates (oft
files). There are 2 PC's which are still having the problem even after we
remove the updates - weird! I have found this website (below) which explains
the problem I am having well but still no solution. Only you have to open the
templates through this long winded process instead of a shortcut as we have
been doing. I called M$ but as normal didn't wont to know me because we have
'customised' the forms and not use a standard one! Great!

That roundabout process is the one that you'll need to use with SP2, due to security issues related to running .oft files directly.

That doesn't sound similar at all, since it doesn't seem to involve a custom form. I'd suggest that you start your own thread in the microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba newsgroup providing full details.
