Updating Contacts from general to custome form

[Guest]

I have imported my contacts from one computer to another. I was using a
custom form and some of the contacts stayed in the custom form, but almost
half didn’t and used the general form (though the custom form was the
default). Is there a way/How to get those contacts from the general form to
the custom form without retype or cut/paste all the information?

Outlook doesn't support importing to a custom form. You can change the MessageClass on the existing items to point to your the published form's class. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools and scripts to accomplish this.
