On-demand Webcast for designing forms???

[Victoria@DIG]

I wasn't able to find one, but does anyone know of an on-demand webcast that
teaches how to do basic form design? I just started a new job and can't take
time out to take a full class.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I've listed some walkthroughs and other resources at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/forms.htm. Feel free to post your ideas here. I find that a lot of people start out putting a lot of work into an Outlook form, only to find out it's not really a suitable solution for their scenarios.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it. What got me interested in learning about
forms, it that I was hoping I could change something so that when I create an
email or read an email I can see the category without having to go through
Options. (Similar to what you have with Tasks.)

That is definitely ***not*** a scenario suitable for handling with a custom form. An appropriate solution would be an Outlook 2007 form region; see http://turtleflock-ol2007.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!C1013F1F9A99E3D8!144.entry
