Sue Mosher - Word template to print from a custom outlook form

[Guest]

I have created a business card request form and am using your example for sending information into a word document (from your book

I have got the form transferring the data, but only using the unsent original form
How do I change the coding to print the information on the sent (or read page)

I cannot work it out and there does not seem to be an explanation of why this is not working in your book

Thanks for any help

Did you publish the form? What is the state of the "send definition with
item" box on the Prpoerties page? Code doesn't run on unpublished or one-off
forms.

I am sending form definition.
the form is in my personal library.

It is intended to be on the organizational library in the end, but I
want to test it before I publish it there.

Also in the code I have had to put:
find at the end of the colfields


sub fillfields(objdoc)
dim colfields
set colfields = objdoc.formfields
colfields("name").result = item.userproperties.find("name")
colfields("jobtitle").result = item.userproperties.find("jobtitle")
colfields("displayaddress").result =
item.userproperties.find("displayaddress")
colfields("sent").result = item.userproperties.find("sent")
set colfields = nothing
end sub

The actual coding works but only on the unsent initially filled in form
which is no good to me.

Let me know what you think

Thanks

That's the problem. Clear the "send form definition" box and republish.
Checking that box one-offs the form, which means it won't run code.
