XCLN: Electronic Forms Support (161623)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client 4.0
This article was previously published under Q161623 SYMPTOMS
On the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client, the following error message
appears:
Correctly displaying this item requires a custom form that is either not
available or not correctly installed. Please see your network
administrator for more information.
On the Compose menu, there is no New Form option.
CAUSE
Forms support for the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client is limited. There
is no MAPI or Visual Basic support for the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh
client. Forms support is limited to reading a text version of the form.
The Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client cannot access forms directly
through the Compose menu. This is by product design. With the Microsoft
Exchange Macintosh client, you will only be able to read a "textized" form.
WORKAROUND
In order for the Microsoft Exchange Macintosh client to see a text version
of the form, the form needs to be configured for that option when you
create it. To do this:
- In the Electronic Forms Designer, click Window Properties.
- On the Menus tab, click Submit Options and click the "Show fields as
text in the message body" check box.
Controls added by extending a form using Microsoft Visual Basic 4.0 16-bit
cannot be "textized" without additional code. For more information on
extending Microsoft Exchange Forms, please see the Microsoft Exchange Forms
Designer Guide.
