How to Access Forms Published to the Organizational Forms Library in the Exchange Server

 

Forms are saved in the Exchange Server as hidden messages. To access these forms, you need to have access to the system folders where these hidden messages are stored. The following code demonstrates how to access forms stored in the Organizational Forms Library using Java through J-Integra for Exchange. This code is a Java implementation of the same VB code that is found in this link: http://www.cdolive.com/cdo5.htm#OrganizationFormsLibrary
