Change data in an Internal Data Type

Field called "Message" is an Internal Data Type and it contains data that was

entered previously and we now want to delete the information and the system

will not allow you to delete it or change it.

This field keeps appearing at the end of any printouts even though it is not

shown on the form itself.
 
Huh? Do you mean the message body? It certainly can be changed, either with

VBA code by modifying the Body property or by changing the form design to

add the message control or make it visible. Then run the form, delete the

body content, and republish the form.

Sue.

Thanks for taking time to respond to my question.

I'm still not clear on what to do as I seem to have multiple issues that

together may require multiple solutions.

First let me say that the original form that I used as my starting point was

developed by Paul Orlando who is no longer with the company. Unfortunately

the form I used as my starting point contains his contact info in the

"Message" field and I am not allowed to edit this value. I also do not have

access to the "Body" field as you will see below.(Sorry your email address

did not work) It does not appear in the "Field Chooser" list even though it

exists behind the scene.

My object was to create a form and after sending the form to the appropriate

person they would print the information and file it. I did not include

"Message" on my form but it shows up as the last field on the printout. My

solution would be to edit it the Message field and simply blank it out but

I'm not allowed to do this.

Would this have anything to do with Outlook permissions?

"Message" and "Body" are two different fields within "Field Chooser" box.

For some reason, likely got deleted, the "Body" field does not appear even

though it does exist. The problem I'm having is with the "Message" field.

Please understand that I'm not putting this field on my form, the problem

seems to be that it was on the form that I copied in order to set up my new

form. The "Message" field does not appear on either the input or the read

page but it prints the message when you print the read page and I don't want

to see it EVER. The design software does not have edit capabilities for this

field. I can drag it onto the form, delete it and it dissappears but it

still prints on the output. Hopefully this better explains my problem.

If you want to fix the form, you need to use one of the two methods I

described earlier: (1) Use VBA code, e.g.:

Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem.Body = ""

and then republisth the form. Or, (2) add the Message field to the form

design, run the form, delete the message body content, republish.
