Default customized form

Hello

Can somebody help me with the following issues when using cutomized form:
1. I have number of people who would be using the customized form
published to the folder residing in Public Folder, is there some way to set
the defined categories so that that it wouldn't have to be changed on every
pc.

2. When entering data to the customized form, it doesn't check for
duplicates, is there way of to set it so that it would check for duplicates?

3. Is there some way to show the PO Box field in the drop down list in the
Address box, so when entering it can be separated with civic and po box
address.

We have Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Comments inline. FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms
issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web
interface, at

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/forms/reqcat.htm for a custom form where
the category selections are built in.

duplicates?

You would have to write your own code to perform that checking, based on
your own definition of a duplicate.

No, the Check Address box cannot be modifed (I presume that 's what you're
talking about), but you could add it as a separate field on the form.
