MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / July 2006COPYING TEMPLATES
Version Used - Outlook 2002. I use outlook contacts for maintaining data. A lot of data has already been entered in the Contacts Records by using the usual template. I have created a new template with additional fields, and would like to use it for the other contact records also. How do I go about it? Do I have to redo all the contacts records by using the new template, or is there a method of replicating the new template for the existing records, so that only the additional fields in the new template have to be filled up? Best regards You need to change the MessageClass on the existing items to point to your new form's class. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools and scripts to accomplish this.
