Abstract: To facilitate the localization of an OUTLOOK form, a custom form generator may be provided. More particularly, a facsimile form may be created in an application development environment to have the look and feel of the desired resulting OUTLOOK form. Selected controls in the facsimile form may be indicated as an existing OUTLOOK control in a basis or comparison OUTLOOK form. The properties of the controls of the facsimile form may be stored in a data store and a control binding identifier may be stored in an entity attribute map. The facsimile form and/or the binding descriptive names may be localized into the desired languages/cultures. A custom form generator may compare the localized facsimile form and associated entity attribute map with a basis localized OUTLOOK form to generate a custom OUTLOOK form.
