Hi,

I have created my custom form at Tools-Form-design
Forms-Calender-ConfRooms

I could save this form alog with Appointment and Scheduling tabs. but when i
opened it from same or other machine it says "The Custom form could not be
opened. Outlook will use an Outlook form instead". Any help to save this form
and install it on other machine.

Thanks,
Paresh

You need to publish the form to have it work, an OFT file won't run in later
versions of Outlook.

You can publish it in the Organizational Forms Library if you use Exchange
and the form is being used internally to your organization, and if you have
permissions to publish there. Otherwise you can publish the form to each
user's Personal Forms Library or have them do so, or if the form is to be
used only in one shared folder you can publish the form to the folder.

an OFT file won't run in later versions of Outlook.
It will not work on Outlook 2003?

I want to send the form that I have designed at
tool-forms-designforms-calender-confroom to my friend so that he can open
it and can run. He is also using outlook 2003. Please note that I have added
"Find Conf Room" tab along with Appointments and Scheduling tabs. So what
should I do now?

Thanks,
Paresh

It will not work on any recent version of Outlook 2003 unless it's
published.

Save the file as an OFT file after publishing it on your computer, send the
OFT as an attachment to your friend and have him also publish it. See the
Forms information on publishing at www.outlookcode.com for specific
information on publishing forms.

Never, ever, publish in 2 or more places. That's an open invitation to
having your form become one-offed or to cause forms cache corruption.

Again, look at the forms information at www.outlookcode.com, as I've
mentioned before. Most of the questions you're asking are already answered
there.

How could I delete the published form. I have to delete from one place as it
is at two places at present,

Use the manage forms dialog. Right-click on any folder in the Folder List
and select Properties. Go to the Forms tab and click the Manage button.
Select the library you want (a folder, Personal Forms, etc.) and delete it
from there. Make sure to clear the forms cache at the same time.

I have deleted the extraform and cleared the cache. I dont know what happened
but now my form is not running. It says "Permission denied(CreateObject). :-(

Could you please tell me what could be the wrong.

Ken, I got the ans from http://outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=67. Thanks for
pointing me this link.

By default, items created with custom forms do not run code when the user
opens them from a shared mailbox. You can change the setting by choosing
Tools | Options | Other | Advanced Options and checking the box for Allow
script in shared folders. You'll see that there is also an option for Allow
script in public folders. In Outlook 2007, these settings are in the Tools |
Trust Center dialog, under E-mail Security.

Thanks,
Paresh
