    Hi,
    does anyone have any knowledge of the programming interface between VB, and Outlook Forms? Basically I need to write Data from VB to an outlook form.

    I know this is a bit of the beaten path, but any help appreciated.

    Just load in the Outlook object and you have access to all the properties, methods and events and forms!

    Sorry,
    I was hoping for a bit more than that. I know I can reference the outlook object, but would specifically like to know if it is possible to write data from VB to a user defined Form in Outlook.

    sorry for vagueness.

    Well, I'm not sure about a user defined form, but an email form can be filled in via VB. I would think if you opened up the reference and scanned through you should find your answer. I was unaware that users could define forms in Outlook. Let me know.

    Hi,
    I have already went through the Outlook library,and the nearest thing I could find was a FormDescrition Class, which didn't appear to have the functionslity I required.

    as regards personal forms:

    Tools -> Forms -> Design a form -> ( Look in Combo Box ) -> Personl forms Library.
