To send to the external address, you will need code in the Item_Send event of the form that creates a new message (Application.CreateItem(0)) and populates its fields with the right data.

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms

Hi,
I've recently taken on the role of creating outlook forms in my job - I've
never used them before and have managed to figure out how to create a form
and publish it and that all works fine.

I got a request from a user to create a form. The form is meant to send to a
public folder (which I set up succesfully) and send to an external email
address.
The form sends ok to the public folder and it keeps its format fine, but
when it sends to the external email address - it opens blank, no form format
or any info at all. I must add that the external email address is not set up
for outlook - which I suspect may be the problem. (This can't be done either
as it's members of the public that it is being sent to)

Is there a way to export the form to say a word document and then have it
attach when sending it to external emails as well as it posting in it's form
format to the public folder?

If this can't be done, what would be another solution? Word Forms sent as an
attachment maybe?


Any help / suggestions would be much appreciated.
T.I.A
