Using Outlook 2003/Windows XP (through Citrix server)

I have created a custom contact form which asks the question: "List
companies owned:" (each in separate text boxes. Some contacts might not
have any companies, other could have up to ten companies. I would like for
each company listed a produce a new "page" to the form with the page having
been renamed to the company name shown in the text box and this new page is
where additional information regarding each company can be collected.

Any suggestions...or am I being too agressive in my expectations of Outlook?

You're expecting too much. Custom pages are limited to the P.2-P.5 that you
see in the form designer. What you might do is have a single page with a
drop-down list at the top for selecting the company and code behind the form
to fill unbound controls with data for the selected company, data stored in
custom fields or even in other Outlook items.
