access to the Org Forms Library. It won't be the default and would be
selected using Tools, Forms, Choose a Form.

Thank you for your help. I knew it would be something complicated :)
There is a type of appointment that gets field information stored in the

and is then used by the calendar owner in their outlook and through their
blackberry. I created a form on the second tab of an appointment to enter

| In the send event handler you can save the item being sent first to populate
the fields and then read the SenderName and/or SenderEmailAddress
properties, if that's what you're asking. Be aware that SenderEmailAddress
may be blank so SenderName is a better bet.
If that's not what you want then please explain what you are looking for.

You'll need outlook 2003 or 2007 to use Outlook Anywhere. If they don't

| While you cannot access all the properties from the details window you can

The AddressEntry object exposes Manager, as does the ContactItem with the

So if you want to get the current user's manager use
