Default Forms for contacts in Outlook 2002


I created a new form using outlooks editor and published
it to my personal library. I also set it as the default
form for contacts.

It works great if I enter a new contact but I can not get
it to display with my existing contacts.

How do I change the form on existing contacts??

Any help is appreciated.

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.
