RE: problem customising library editform
If it’s any consolation we had a similar issue with custom list forms. They simply couldn’t be applied to the list settings. We wound up having to start again. ☹ From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Maxine Harwood Sent: Monday, 6 February 2012 4:20 PM To: ozMOSS Subject: Re: problem customising library editform Thanks for the suggestions, the library was created in the UI, no custom code at all.
