Custom Contact Form

[Guest]

I created a custom contact form which works o.k. but will not check for
duplicate names. The Check for Duplicate Names is chosen but this custom
form will not check. Is there something I should add to the custom contact
form?

Custom form contacts don't check for duplicates. You would have to write your own code routine for the Item_Write event handler to duplicate what Outlook does with the standard contact form.

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/com...spx?dg=microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms
