Any way to add "Spouse's Birthday" into Outlook contact standard contact form
without designing a custom form. My ultimate objective is to have the
birthdate added as a reminder on my Calendar as a reoccurance (just as the
contact birthday and anniversary fields are)?

I amy have misunderstood your question, but on those important, reoccuring
dates, I simply do them in CALENDAR on the date and click the reoccurance so
they come up and use reminder as well a few days in advance.

Yes, that's a great way to do it -too simple to have occurred to me!
I was referring to the standard contact form with the birthday and anniversary
controls. We do all our inputting via that form and was hoping to keep the
routine the same, so that our clients birthdays (husband and wife) are
"remmebered" and tied directly to their contact form and other information. I
thought I may have missed a drop-down or something-or-other that allowed me
to enter both spouses' b-days. Thanks, I appreciate it!

Yeah, Outlook standard Contact forms is pretty much set up for business
contacts, where as most of my clients are husband and wife. There is a place
for only one birthday on the standard form. I guess I'll have to add another
birthday fieldafter exploring around a bit through some of the other forms.
Thanks for your help.
