This file is to help you customize your toolbox.

After you customize the Toolbox by using the Microsoft Visual Basic Editor in Outlook Forms Designer, you cannot reset the Toolbox to the default configuration.

If you customized the Toolbox byadding pages or ActiveX controls or by deleting the standard controls, and you want to reset the Toolbox to its original configuration, perform the following steps:

Quit Outlook.

Click the Start button, point to Find, and then click Files Or Folders.

Click the Name and Location tab, and then in the Named box, type Outlook.box.

In the Look in list, select the drive in which you installed Outlook.

Click Find Now.

In the search results window at the bottom of the Find dialog box, click Outlook.box, and then rename the file (for example, to Outlook.bbb).

When you restart Outlook and start Forms Designer, the Toolbox contains only the Controls page, and all of the default controls are displayed on the page.
