Output of form

My company recently switched to Outlook 2003 from a mainframe based email

system (TAO). I am in the process of developing forms to replace forms that

were used in the old system.

Whenever I use the new form, the resulting email shows only my signature and

nothing from the form.

Does anyone have any hints as to what I need to change/add to fix this?
 
When designing the form, did you use the Edit Read Page button to create a

read layout for recipients to view? Did you publish it to the Organizational

Forms library on your company's Exchange server, with the "send form

definition with item" box unchecked?

Yes

Exchange server, with the "send form definition with item" box unchecked?

I published the form to my "Personal Forms Library"

This is my first attempt at using Outlook for anything other than my mail

client. I have been programming in VB for about 15 years (mainframe

languages for more that I care to admit). What moves the values that are

entered in the fields on the form to the email that is generated and sent to

the recipients?

If you published only to your own Personal Forms library, you're the only

recipient who can see the form UI. If you cannot publish to the Org Forms

library, then the form will work only if published to each user's Personal

Forms library.

I sent the form to myself.

More likely, you sent an item created from the form. The form is nothing

more than a code/UI template and is not sent with the item. (Hence the need

to have the form definition available to the recipient.)

What is the value of the MessageClass property for the item? What Outlook

version?

I don't understand your question about "what moves the values"? Could you

restate it? Thanks.
