Fields get created in folder, not in custom form
Hello,
I can't seem to remember how to create a field in a custom contact form! The custom form contains a field on who is responsible for the contact and each user has views filtering to show only 'their' contacts. I want to create a 'Temp' field with a Yes/No value (checkbox). I want to use this field to create another filtered view. Any user can use this if and how they want; to filter out whom to call this week, who gets Xmas card, which contacts are personal/private etc. I need a field inside the form to easily create the filtered view, don't I? Or is there a better way? Grateful for any tip! Thankx in advance, kk

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/fields.htm for best practices on adding fields to forms and folders.
You need the field in the folder to create a view based on it. -- 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 "kkarre" wrote in message ...
