Custom Outlook Forms

by afisher . Updated 24 years, 1 month ago

I want to replace the default contact form in Outlook with a modified one for use by all employees in my company. The change will involve adding a list box to replace the Notes text box, and adding a command button. When the button is clicked, I want to use VBS to load a form containing a text box for recording the body of a note, which can then be saved to an Access database along with a name, time, date and EntryID for the open contact. On the modified contact form?s load event, I want to use VBS to fill a list box with note data from the Access database, filtered based on the EntryID of the contact being viewed.

Is this possible? If so, is the VB form portion of it best done as an Active X control or a standard exe? Thanks in advance!
