I created a new contact form to act as a CRM for our sales department and it
is on a shared drive in a public folder for entry. Our company has other
shared items in the public folders (like for client communications, etc.) and
whenever a new item is put into the client communications the folder for that
item becomes BOLDED to notify everyone who bothers to look that there is a
new item there.

Is it possible to do that with a custom form? Cause it to notify users, one
way or the other, that there are new items or changes in the folder?

It's generally a function of the folder, not the form. The users should put the folder in Public Folder \Favorites.
