Ms Outlook Forms Printing Help

I have been working with Outlook forms for a good 4 months now, among other projects here at work. I have a CUSTOM FORM with a CUSTOM BUTTON problem.

I wrote a VBSCript Code on a POST-item object that allows the printing of the information in the Outlook Form via a Word Document Template.

Now...I just had to redesign the form in a MAIL-item object. Problem is...the Custom PRINT FUNCTION does not work!!!

I made sure that all the items in the Outlook form are LOCAL to the form so I could call-on each object. Here's a wierd thing (i found it wierd)...once I open the custom form...I have to go click TOOLS>>FORMS>>DESIGN THIS FORM...and then I Hit TOOLS>>RUN THIS FORM (which then instantiates the form in RUn Time)..and when I click on my custom PRint Button...it PRINTS (using the Word Document template).

I NEED HELP. What's happening here...and what do I need to do to make it work properly???

THANK YOU
:rolleyes:

I posted this in the ASP section...so I tried posting it here, coz maybe i posted this in the wrong section after all.

Hello there,

could it be that you don't open Word and make it visible ?

Here's a sample of an xl file I attach to an Outlook form.

You should be able to do the same with Word. Have you tried recording a print action. The code generated is almost cut and paste ready.

Code:

---


Dim oXLApp
Dim oXLSheet

Set xl = CreateObject("Excel.application")
If xl Is Nothing Then
      MsgBox "Couldn't start Excel."
  Else
    xl.Visible = True
    Set xlbook = xl.Workbooks.Add
    Set xlsheet = xlbook.ActiveSheet 
        With xlsheet
        .Cells(1, 1) = "Type of demand"
        .Cells(1, 2) = "Material"
        .Cells(1, 3) = "Supplier Reference"
        .Cells(1, 4) = "Description"
        .Cells(1, 5) = "Current Usage"
        .Cells(1, 6) = "New Usage"
        .Cells(1, 7) = "Delivery date"
        .Cells(1, 8) = "Remarks"
        for x=0 to count
                if MaterialListArray(x,0) <> "" then
                for y=0 to 7
                .Cells(x+3,y+1)=MaterialListArray(x,y)
                next
        end if   
        next
        end with
        xlbook.ActiveSheet.SaveAs ("c:\temp\test.xls")
       
 end if
Set xl = Nothing
Set xlbook = Nothing
item.attachments.add "c:\temp\test.xls"
