Default can't access forms

In Windows Explorer, try going to the FORMS folder -- C:\Users\your user
name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\FORMS -- and deleting not just FrmCache.dat but
also any subfolders you see there. Also make sure that you have full owner
permission on that folder, because Outlook needs to write new items whenever
you load a form into the cache.

Where, precisely, did you publish the form -- to the Contacts folder? Your
Personal Forms library? You could try republishing with your .oft file.

Also, please quote enough of the previous message(s) in the discussion
thread so that we can see what the issue is. Not everyone reads newsgroups
on the web site. At this point, I have no idea what the original issue is.


I hope this is from the beginning
------------------
Vista Home Premium 32 / Outlook 2007

I have created some forms that used to work. No more.
On selecting a Contact form, I get "The form required to view this
message cannot be displayed. Contact the administrator." No other forms
appear to work EXCEPT those in the standard library. To my knowledge, I
am the administrator. This is a stand-alone PC in my residence. If I
go to Manage User Accounts, it shows only 2 accounts - LastName
Administrator and Guest.
My custom forms are in either Personal Library or Outlook Folders. All
of these forms give the error.
I have my OFT files in a custom folder. All open without error but if I
publish them, I get the error.
Nothing I know has changed to cause the error.
FWIW, I can open all forms in 'Design Form' and edit and publish.

I have googled my problem and found references to FRMCACHE.DAT which I
am told to delete and restart Outlook. Did that. Opened Outlook and
tried to open a form. Same error. And FRMCACHE.DAT was not rebuilt.
Doing 'Find' shows no such file.
