Outlook 2003 custom form not viewable by receiver

I have an Outlook 2003 customer form that I created. I have sent it to others

in my organization and they have saved it in their Personal Forms Library.

They published the form and the check box is not checked. The form worked in

October. I made some minor wording changes and resent the form to everyone

and they went through the same process to save to their Personal Library,

publish and uncheck the box. Now the form is not working. When the user sends

it, the receiver is getting only a blank screen. I'm not sure what has

happened and not everyone is having problems.

Can someone help me?
 
My guess is that someone didn't follow your very nice instructions. If the

recipient uses the Help | About This Form command (and you've incremented

the version number of the form for each new version), you can find out what

version they have and proceed from there.

They have the correct version of the form. During my initial help, I reloaded

it myself and it still didn't work. Do you have any other suggestions?

What does the recipient actually get? If the received message doesn't have a

MessageClass property value of IPM.Note.YourFormName, then you should

suspect that something is one-offing the form.

The receiver is only getting a blank e-mail. The form is not there. How do I

find out what the Message Class property value is for a received message? I'm

not sure I know where that is or how it could be one-offing.

You can see the value of the MessageClass property by adding the Message

Class field to the current view, writing a little VBA macro, or using the

Outlook Spy tool.

I'm having this same issue again. I've checked the MessageClass property and

it is correct but the receiver is seeing only a blank e-mail. i'm not sure

where else to go with this. Other employees are using the form with no

issues, there is just one person having this problem. Can you help?

If the recipient is seeing the correct value for the MessageClass property,

maybe they published the form to their Personal Forms library with the wrong

message class name. You might also have users clear their forms cache.

Also, make sure when you update a form that you increment the version number

on the (Properties) page in design mode.

How do they clear their forms cache?

Do I clear the cache of the receiver or the sender?

Also, I just was working with a user and they sent the form to me and I was

able to view it but then sent it to someone else and that person just

received a blank screen.
