    i am having trouble creating this file to work the way i want it to. i was wondering if someone is willing to lend a hand or at least tell me what the problem is. now i am not a big programmer i'm more of a hardware person, and someone wanted me to program this and i can't get any code right to what i am doing and i keep getting this message (shown as an attachment) and i can't figure out what to do

    That error message is quite generic and its hard to see what the problem is.

    What exactly are you trying to do?

    Can you post the code that you have written so far?

    that's just it i don't have any code so far and i need to know how to run it. like i said before i'm not a huge programmer and i'm not into it i'm more into hardware. besides like i tell a lot of people, you need my hardware to work in order for you to be able to program. i would like some help on some of it, i know how to program some what but not to fully make a complete big program work. i have designed a form that i want to be able to send out to another user and then have them accept it, and be able to type in the designated txt boxes and then be able to save that information with a start and due date. and have it automatically be sent back to me and put into my Tasks on outlook

    Are you talking VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) using Outlook's script editor? It would look something like
    Code:
    Function Item_Open()
        Set objInsp = Item.GetInspector
        Set objPage = _
          objInsp.ModifiedFormPages("P.2")
        On Error Resume Next
        Set AC20 = objPage.Controls("AC20")
        AC20.Height = 16
        If Err <> 0 Then
            MsgBox "This form requires an " & _
              "additional component that does " & _
              "not seem to be available on " & _
              "your machine." & vbCrLf & _
              "Please install ActiveCalendar " & _
              "from the library."
            Err.Clear
        End If
        Set objInsp = Nothing
        Set objPage = Nothing
        Set AC20 = Nothing
    End Function
