You need to change the MessageClass on the existing items to point to your
new form's class. See
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools
and scripts to accomplish this.

I can start it but outlook crashes after 2000 records
I'm working with a Pentiom 4 - 2.6 Ghz with 768 Mb Ram (WinXp - Outlook
2000)

Outlook has a memory leak when iterating largish Items collections. You
might need to try doing them in smaller batches -- move each batch to an
empty folder before processing. Increasing the size of the Windows paging
file may alsoo help.

Alternatively, you could rewrite the macro to use CDO, which can handle
larger message collections.
