"The custom form could not be opened" What is it talking about?
Outlook Contacts has SUDDENLY started to tell me that "The custom form could
not be opened. Outlook will use an OUtlook form instead. The form required to view this message cannot be displayed. Contact you administrator." What the heck does it mean? It's never done this before. This is a home computer and I'm the only one using it -- there is no administrator. |

Did you recently receive a custom form?

This was just great. The answer was a question -- which I answered -- and
since then NOTHING. Big help.

Not until you lose that HORRIBLE attitude. If scream and bitch when someone
asks a pertinent question, don't expect anyone to help you. Gregg Hill "Sylvia" wrote in message ... Well, then is anyone going to answer me? "Brian Tillman" wrote: Sylvia wrote: This was just great.

"The custom form could not be opened" What is it talking about
Well, Gregg, I was told that someone would answer me right away if I asked
the question on this discussion group, so I did on 6/18; I got a reply on 6/18 and immediately answered the question asked of me. I don't think that I had a "horrible attitude" then. But when I had not rec'd any answer by the 23rd after checking at least twice a day . . . you can read the correspondence after that -- did you read what came before? Yes, I was impatient. but I still have not gotten the problem solved. Where do you get the idea that I'm screaming an bitching? If someone told you that you were screaming and bitching just because you asked a question and needed an answer, wouldn't you feel abused. Can you tell me what this discussion group is? Is it just us lay people on it? I need someone professional who can answer this question. Where do I go to get that? Well, never mind. My computer-whiz-kid (16 year old son of a friend) is home from college on his vacation now. I'll ask him. No need for you to reply to screaming and bitching.

"...just because you asked a question and needed an answer...." Hardly!
You stated, "This was just great. The answer was a question -- which I answered -- and since then NOTHING. Big help." That is the attitude to which I referred. You post a response like that and then expect VOLUNTEERS to help you (or even if they were paid!)? It's not likely. These newsgroups are watched by thousands of people around the world, all of them volunteering their time. Most are not lay people, they are industry professionals who give quite generously of their time to help their peers. To me, that is strange behavior: helping the very people who may be your competition, but they do it anyway. Milly asked a question of you, which you answered roughly 13 hours later (not immediately as you claim). Brian then stated that Milly was doing it in her spare time, and your rude response was, "Well, then is anyone going to answer me?" I would venture to guess that the reason there were no further responses was because of the responses you gave, even after you were told that the help was not part of her job. What did you expect? By the way, I just fixed one with the same problem you describe. I found the answer by searching in Google. Gregg Hill "Sylvia" wrote in message ...
