CANNOT EDIT THE FORM I PUBLISHED!

[NADIA]

Hi,

I created this form, published under personal form
library. Now whenever I open it up, I cannot click on it
anywhere...Is it in a read only mode? Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks

So you have text boxes on the form you cannot click in? Can you provide a
little more information? What version of Outlook? What type of form?

Sure,
Sorry about providing partial information. I'm using
outlook 2000, and I designed form myself from one of the
template forms. I just re did the whole form so that
problem is fixed. But now when ever I send that form to
myself, I open it from my Inbox, It open a read page not a
compose page. Basically whatever I design is not showing
up.

Hopefully this would help you.

Thanks
Nadia

When you create a form you must create 2 forms. One is

the compose page, the one that you see when you send an e-
mail. The other is the read page, the one that you see
when you open an e-mail that someone has sent to you. If
you look on the toolbar, while creating your form, you
should have a compose button and a read button, by
clicking on these buttons it will shuffle you been the
compose and read pages.

Merge the Compose and Read pages. Go to the Form Menu and uncheck Separate
Read Layout.

Actually you can merge the two pages. Go to the form menu and uncheck
Separate Read Layout.
