SYMPTOMS
When you open a custom form on the desktop and use the right mouse button
to click (right-click) the same Inbox entry, the opened form will shut
down.
CAUSE

check for an attachment submenu. This is followed by a shutdown message
that causes the open form to close.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Outlook version 8.03.
This problem was corrected in Microsoft Office 97 Service Release 2
(SR-2).
