I have a contact folder full of contacts. I would like to
change the default display form to one that I have
modified. I know how to set the new form as default for
new posts, but how can I change it for existing contacts
in the folder?

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.
