Hello,


Is it ok to publish to both the olfolderContacts and the persona
library. Microsoft stated it was good, since you will have th
ability to select the form from the "Actions", and also it will work i
all subfolders. But I've seen some comments that having the same for
published in two places is bad and could corrupt the cache.

Or does the corruption only occur if you publish 2 different forms t
different folders?

Thanks in advance



...................... code snippet .....................
Dim objFormDesc As FormDescription

...
Set ofContactlist = olNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderContacts)
Set objContactFormItem = _
objApp.CreateItemFromTemplate _
(INSTALLPATH & "ContactXX.oft")

Set objFormDesc = objContactFormItem.FormDescription
objFormDesc.name = CONTACT_RE


objFormDesc.PublishForm olPersonalRegistry
objFormDesc.PublishForm olFolderRegistry, ofContactlis
 
In versions before Outlook 2002 SP3, you do run the risk of forms cache
corruption. As long as your users know the symptoms and how to clear the
cache, this probably won't be too much of a problem.

Just to make sure, the symptoms are of corruptions, the custom for
doesn't come up, and the solution is to clear the cache via the form
manager or remove the "frmcache" file itself?

Yes. The command to clear the cache deletes the Frmcache.dat file.
