How to apply Custom Form to EXISTING Contacts? 1

[BJGAdmin]

I am developing our Outlook/Exchange contact folder forms.&nbsp;&nbsp;I create a new form, and can set it to be the default form for creating a new contact.&nbsp;&nbsp;How do I apply that form to my EXISTING contacts, so that when they are opened, they display in that new form?<br><br>--&nbsp;&nbsp;Aaron Cutchin<br>--&nbsp;&nbsp;LAN Admin, BJG<br>--&nbsp;&nbsp;<A HREF="mailto:admin@bjg.com">admin@bjg.com</A><br>

In the microsoft knowledge base, article Q170301 discusses how to update existing outlook items to use your new custom form. I know this applies to Outlook 97 because I ran into that situation helping a friend.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You'll have to download Omsgclas.exe which is a Word 97 document with a macro in it that will update the read-only message class field of existing items. Sounds more complicated than it is to use!<br><br>Good Luck.
