The new contact form layout in OL2003 and the included picture control are not available to programmers, who will see the older layout when they put an Outlook 2003 contact form into design mode. One workaround is to use an image control, as described at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpicture.htm#control .

For other contact form idiosyncracies, see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/contactform.htm

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public
.outlook.program_forms
