MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / November 2006Contact Form
I need to know how to pull up old contacts that I have in Outlook using a new form that I have just created. I have created a new Contact Field called "Coordinates. I redesigned the Contact Form and inserted this field on the front of the "General" tab on this form. I saved this form and called it "Contact1." I then went to the properties for the Contacts folder and changed "When posting to this folder, use:" from IPM.Contact to Contact1. When I add a new contact it now uses my new Contact1 form. I can not figure out how to get this form to be used when I pull up one of my old contacts though. Please tell me how it can do this. Thanks!!!!!!!! To change existing items so that they display using a published custom message form, you need to change the value of the MessageClass property on each item so that it points to the published form's class, e.g. IPM.Contact.MyForm. The page at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm has links to scripts and tools to do this.
