Last reviewed: February 3, 1998
Article ID: Q146459

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0

SUMMARY

After your form has been compiled, you will find Microsoft Visual Basic files in the <FORMPROJ>.VB subdirectory. You can modify your form by using Microsoft Visual Basic version 4.0 to open the .VBP file, and making your modifications.

Microsoft Visual Basic version 4.0 adds extra functionality by allowing the use of Microsoft Visual Basic control types that are not offered by the Forms Designer. For example, you can access external databases that can include Microsoft Access databases (.MDB), Microsoft Open Data Base Connectivity (ODBC) based databases, or installable ISAM databases.

For more information, see Chapter 9 "Extending Forms" in the Microsoft Exchange Server "Application Designer's Guide."
