Re: Outlook 2003 - Custom Templates for Public Folders

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

What are you confused about? We can give you more instructions, but if they hit the same roadblocks of confusion, that effort is going to be a waste of everyone's time.

At this point, what might be the simplest solution is to use textboxes bound to custom Outlook properties and then set the value of the Subject property using a formula. To do that, you'd need to add Subject to a custom form page, so you can get to its control Properties, but that can be on a hidden page.

I want to emulate the "Subject" functionality on a public folder (calendar)
so that entries made into the textboxes will display on the calendar as the
"Subject" would.

Note that this is not an issue of displaying data "as the Subject would" but of putting the data you want to display actually in the Subject property.

Hi, Sue,

Last night, I visited outlookcode.com and spent a few hours trying to solve
my problem, but am still quite confused. Thus far, I've recreated my form
with unbound textboxes and have had no success with my code. As a refresher,
I want to emulate the "Subject" functionality on a public folder (calendar)
so that entries made into the textboxes will display on the calendar as the
"Subject" would. For example, if I wrote test1, test2, and test3 into the
corresponding textboxes, I'd like those three entries to show on the
calendar. If there is another method to do this, I would be open to it. I
just want my textboxes to display on the calendar.

I really appreciate your help in this matter.

Thank you.
