I have over 500 contacts in my outlook contacts folder, and now I created a
new contact form that I want to be applied to ALL EXISTING contacts already
in my folder. How can I do this?
 
To change existing items so that they display using a published custom message form, you need to change the value of the MessageClass property on each item so that it points to the published form's class, e.g. IPM.Contact.MyForm. The page at http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=39 has links to scripts and tools to do this.
 
Sue, thank you so much! You are a life saver!

I've got the same question and have been trying to go to the link you
provided; I get page error. Is there a different link?

Works fine from here. Maybe it was just one of those transient problems.
