Hi,

We've created a custom form for Outlook 2007 meeting requests. We want to make this the default one for every meeting request users create. More info than http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=39 cannot be found.

Isn't it possible via SCCM or any GPO to force this ?

Thanks for your replies.

I checked that specific page and it was available to me so it may have been a website hickup

I found this information on the page

In Outlook 2007, forms substitution is incompatible with the new form regions extensibility feature. Specifically, if you have a replaceall form region with the derived class IPM.Note.MyRegion, use registry substitution to make that the default class, and then press the New button, Outlook will create a new message with the class IPM.Note and will ignore the form region.

WARNING: Using substitution to compose mail with a custom form generally is a bad idea. In many cases, non-Outlook recipients will not be able to read an attachments and, at best, will get an annoying Winmail.dat attachment.
