I know that I've seen an answer to this recently. I've searched several of
the MS newsgroups and can't seem to find it.

I know that you can not export user-defined fields to a spreadsheet, however
there is a way to select, cut, and then paste the user-defined field data
into a spreadsheet that you've just created. Can anybody refresh my memory
on how to do this? Thank-you. - JC
 
Outlook doesn't support exporting custom fields. Quick and dirty method:

1. Put all the items from your form in one folder.
2. Use a table view to display all the data fields that you want to export
to Excel.
3. Choose Edit | Select All.
4. Choose Edit | Copy.
5. Paste to Excel.

Otherwise, you'd have to write custom code or use a third-party application.

That's the ticket..... Thanks. -- JC
