Creating Command Button Using Define Form

C

CJ

I am trying to create a button exactly like "Categories..." with a corresponding field exactly like "Categories". I want the button to show a flexible list of keywords, which are then displayed in the corresponding field

I can create a new field, and I can create a button, but I can't make the button work with the field and display an available list of keywords which are found in the field. For instance, I want a button called "Locations..." that lists different locations which can be checked, or you can just type in a new location. Then I want a display field next to it that displays whatever locations were entered or checked off

Please help, thanks...

You would have to create your own ActiveX control to display a locations
dialog and then install it on all client systems.

FYI, there is a separate newsgroup for Outlook forms issues --
microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms.
