populating appointment combobox with contact name

[John Bowers]

Hi,

I'm trying to populate a combobox on a modified appointment form with the
name of a contact in a contact list. The combobox's property is tied to a
user-defined field. I'm attempting to do this with vbscript. Is this
possible. I keep getting messages like Contact.fullname is not accessible.

Cheers

You aren't learning from past experience. Just Monday Sue admonished you to
show your code, rather that just say something isn't working. The code
allowed me to see what you were doing wrong. The same will be true here.

You are, of course, reinventing the wheel. I don't claim that my earlier
design is the best, you probably ought to look at it--it might be easier. Go
to the following page:

Its code example 33 or 35. Something about Action Item 1.
