Okie, i've designed a custom form for the lab approval. The form has a button 'send' to allow users to send the form back and forth (supposedly) for questions and comments.

'Send' command has its code 'Item.Send' to send the form out. I saved the form as .oft (template file)

The problem is, when I load the form and click the 'Send' command button, it sends the form out okie. But users can't send the form back to me. Reason is, the 'From' field is always identified as my outlook identity. when users clicked on the 'send' command button, a message always popped up and said: "You do not have the permission to send the message on behalf of specified user." Is there anyway to alternate the "from" field's value so other users can send the form back? I know that I've done something wrong, but I don't know where to fix this error.

I've created a 'From' field on the form, with the hope that users can delete the value of this field and change it themselves. Result, the value of that field can't be deleted. I'm stuck of don't know what to do.

Please help. I greatly appreciate it.
Thanks much!
