Advice for someone starting with custom forms?Tonight, by chance, really, I stumbled across a post that informed me that in Outlook 2003, if you change anything on the "General" form, the form changes it's look to Outlook 2002. Good to know! I am new to Outlook, and am working on custom forms and VBA in Outlook - and it seems a strange beast to this newbie! Has anyone put together a list of "dos or don'ts" for working with custom forms and code in Outlook? Or a list of major bugs/issues to know about? In the Access world, there is a site with "10 commandments of Access" - suggesting 10 "best practices" for newcomers... anything like that in your world? Thanks! -- Fred Boer - Amateur Access Enthusiast Interests: Library software / Z39.50 / Web Services Freeware Small Library Application available here: http://www3.sympatico.ca/lornarourke/ This would be a good start;
