“Categories” button in new Outlook form

by clarkebear . Updated 25 years, 7 months ago

In designing a custom appointment form, I’m doing layout on page 2 (and hiding page 1), and I want the users to have “Categories…” available. I dragged the button onto the form from the Field Chooser’s’ “All Mail Fields” collection. Then I draggedthe “Categories” (no “…”) text field onto the form.
After publishing the form, I click “New” and the custom form appears just fine. Pressing the “Categories…” button reveals the list of categories, and they can be clicked, but then nothing shows up in the accompanying text box. What’s the secret here? I can’t seem to find documentation for this situation.
