This article was previously published under Q119561



SYMPTOMS
The Microsoft Electronic Forms Designer does not include any cross-platform support for Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks. Although Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks includes an electronic form (E-form) solution, it cannot be configured to interface with E-forms created using the Electronic Forms Designer.



CAUSE
The Microsoft E-Forms Designer uses Visual Basic as its design environment.

On the Macintosh platform, Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks includes a HyperCard-based Forms Designer. While the two E-forms packages allow administrators to create E-form solutions on both the Macintosh and Windows platforms, they cannot be designed to interact cross-platform.



STATUS
This feature is under review and will be considered for inclusion in a future release.
