Default Modifying Outlook


I would like two additional features of Outlook:

1. One field to scan and post business cards images of my business contacts
the same way now we can post the contact picture. Can I program and/or
create this field in the normal Outlook Contact form? By the way I don't know
anything about programming.

2. My mobile phone syncs with Outlook to download and/or upload my contacts
and calendar. My cel phone downloads all the contact info the same way
Outlook contact form has the fields (biz phone first, and at the end the
contact mobile phone). Given I normally call my contacts to their cell
phones, can I change the default order the contact infor is downloaded to my
Motorola Cell phone so everybodies cell phone is first instead of the biz
phone?

1) Not without a considerable amount of programming work. Outlook 2007 will have a way to maintain business card images, but doesn't have a built in scanner.

2) That's not under Outlook's control, but is handled by your phone sync software.
