Outlook 2003 Custom Form headache!

by sprmano . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

I have been designing some custom forms for my company’s outlook contacts database. I have created the forms, however I have a couple of boxes that just will not cooperate.

I wanted a text box that has the ability drag and drop documents to it, and also allow me to edit text formatting. The only way I could think was to copy the “Notes” box from a standard contact form.

This box tends to grab and hold other items in the form where they completely ignore any properties I assign to them, such as snap to grid, or resize with form. It’s like this particular box has a mind of its own.

How can I create this type of active text box where I can drag and drop Microsoft Office and PDF documents into it, as well as text formatting????? And one that may be a bit more managable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
