PC Forms: Cross-Platform E-Forms Not Supported (119561)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer, when used with:
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.0
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.2
This article was previously published under Q119561 SYMPTOMS
The Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer does not include any cross-platform
support for Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks. Although Microsoft Mail
for AppleTalk Networks includes an electronic form (E-form) solution, it
cannot be configured to interface with E-forms created using the Electronic
Forms Designer.
CAUSE
The Microsoft E-Forms Designer uses Visual Basic as its design environment.
On the Macintosh platform, Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks includes a
HyperCard-based Forms Designer. While the two E-forms packages allow
administrators to create E-form solutions on both the Macintosh and Windows
platforms, they cannot be designed to interact cross-platform.
STATUS
This feature is under review and will be considered for inclusion in a
future release.
