is it possible to link a field to a property of a control in formregions - forms

I am developing an add-in for outlook 2013/2016.
Thus far I've been using vbscript for my forms.
However, needing not to have code exposed to anyone
who knows how to hit'design this form' and for easier
upgrading I was considering to switch to formregions.
My problem is how to assign the properties of a control
created in c# form region in the way that is done in outlook forms
(that are meant to contain form regions)
But I cannot find any help and references for that purpose
Does anyone know of a workaround?or some documentation, maybe?
PS:Importing the form region results in error:
'The installation Path for outlook 15 cannot be determined'
(I am running vsto 15 in office 16 64-bit)

thnx for all the effort!!!
the conversation got quite long
and i am gratefull.
i have taken your answers into
account but i could not complete
the puzzle starting from all
of the points you made.
Instead i will answer this question
with a complete tutorial i found.
Actually it dates back to office 2007
(so i avoided it initially because,
you know, technologies change
but i tried on 2016 and verified it works!!!

You can persist any property on an item using PropertyAccessor.GetProperty/SetProperty or the UserProperties collection.

(Power Automate, Microsoft Forms connector) Finding Form using FormID?

I have inherited a bunch of flows from a former co-worker. One of these flows are using the: "When a response is submitted" Microsoft Forms connector as a trigger.
The connection is made using my former co-workers 'personal' work account and I need to switch it to mine (a service acc).
Now, my co-worker shared access to relevant SharePoint sites before leaving but must have forgotten to share access to this specific Form. I am unable to locate the form in our SharePoint setup and have even had our administrator try and help me look but no luck so far.
Looking at the connector the only thing I have to go from is a "Form ID", which I haven't been able to find much info about except for how to extract it to use in flows.
The form ID looks like this:
Xz9pUAX8ika_qIDyEUYU05TNwO5_-kpFmx7-D65GU8lUNFYzWkg1MUY2VEo3VTExSEdSVDBZT*******
I do not know how or if this ID is sensitive at all so I gave blanked out the last few digits to be safe. If seeing the full ID makes a difference and is not a security hazard I wouldn't mind sharing it.
Does anyone know a trick for locating a Microsoft Forms using a FormsID?
It looks like you´re in luck. The ID can be used when properly used in the HTML. For the following examples, I used the ID that you provided.
The standard link that you use for sending and collecting respones should look like this: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=Xz9pUAX8ika_qIDyEUYU05TNwO5_-kpFmx7-D65GU8lUNFYzWkg1MUY2VEo3VTExSEdSVDBZT*******
The "Share to collaborate" link should look like this: https://forms.office.com/Pages/DesignPageV2.aspx?subpage=design&FormId=Xz9pUAX8ika_qIDyEUYU05TNwO5_-kpFmx7-D65GU8lUNFYzWkg1MUY2VEo3VTExSEdSVDBZT*******
The last link only works depending on the settings.

If it doesn´t hopefully the first link can hopefully help you in copying the content.

Change signature in Outlook Web (OWA) with Powershell

Until now, I was using Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration in PowerShell to change OWA's signatures and it worked perfectly. No permission problems, no configuration problems, nothing.
Today, I was trying to update my signature with PowerShell but nothing happened, the signature in the browser is not changed at all.
But if I use Get-MailboxMessageConfiguration, the new signature is there:
I can see that now, it's possible to manage multiples signatures in OWA. But I can't find find any information about that. So, how I can modify the already existing signature? Or, how I can create a new signature?
----- Update 01/11/2021
It's a new feature that is not available for everyone yet. My company's O365 account has it, but my student (also 0365) and classic Outlook account doesn't.
So a third option is: How I can turn off this feature?
----- Update 01/11/2021
Still no defenitive solution.
There're some workarounds that may work. Here's the github issue (opened by #Lee) and the Microsoft's Tech Community discussion:
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/office-docs-powershell/issues/8537
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-powershell/cant-no-longer-change-owa-s-signature/m-p/2907053
Answering the question relating to your third option "How can I turn off this feature," I opened a support ticket with Microsft for my tenant and they rolled this back for us for now. It took a few weeks to finally get sorted but we can now successfully use this command to set outlook web signatures. Our users no longer see the option to add multiple signatures on the web version.
In the final response, they mentioned that there may be a graph solution in the works for editing the multiple roaming signatures but couldn't offer an ETA.

How to edit TFS work item email template

I'm new to TFS 2013 and I'm trying to edit the email template that pops up when you click the email symbol within a work type item in TFS, but I have not been able to thus far.
Specifically I want to include a custom field that has been added to the form. The research I have done points me in the the direction of the following path way: Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0\Application Tier\TFSJobAgent\Transforms\1033.
However the files here (and please forgive my ignorance if I have got this wrong) appear to control event changes across the TFS, which I don’t want to change.
My scenario is that a user wants to email a work type to another user and include a custom field in the email template. Thanks (I would have included a screen shot but stackoverflow would not let me).

module not found error in Access 2007

I have a database and I was working on it this morning. I created a filter form for a table which just takes parameters and when you click submit on this form, it checks for those fields in the where clause of the report. Anyway, I did this in Access 2013 and it worked fine. My colleague tried to run it in Access 2007 and it gives an error saying "Module not found" and takes me to the VB code in debug mode. I thought something went wrong with the database and I checked it on my computer and it is working fine. It just doesn't run on his computer. What can be the problem? and how can I solve it?
I don't have Access 2013, but I assume that you need to enable the content, as we do in 2010. When the file is opened a notification bar appears below the Ribbon (in 2010) to enable content.
Edited I got this the wrong way round (problem is not opening from 2013, but from 2007) but opening in 2007 you would still need to enable the content.
Added
Almost sounds as if the form's Has Module property has been set to No, but this seems unlikely. I don't like to open databases in different Access versions - I don't trust Access to do this successfully (I've had many problems with this). I would start a blank database in Access 2007 and import all of the database objects, then Compact and Repair.

Word 2007 multiple BeforeClose event handling

I have office 2007 installed on the windows 7 platform.
In the Word application exists our supplier's add-in that catches BeforeClose document event and asks customer the question before exitting.
Now, I developed MY custom add-in that also catches BeforeClose document event and performs some operation.
The question is: HOW can I control, which of the "catching" will perform FIRST and which SECOND?
I need that MY add-in will work first and the supplier code will work after me, before the documnet will closed.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Milo
The only thing I can see would be the loading order of the addins. You might need to "name" your addin file so it loads first (not sure there is another way), then check if it effectively triggers first on all you system configurations.
