When I try to use the default Contacts button on the custom form it
gives me this "The item must be saved. Would you lilke to save it
now?"

This sounds like normal behavior. A contact must be saved before you can link it to other contacts.

Also, the form is being named "()" in the title bar.

Do you have a formula on the FileAs field, in addition to your code?

On my form I have the following code:

Function Item_Write()

If Item.UserProperties.Find("Utility") "" Then
If Item.UserProperties.Find("CityState") "" Then

Item.FileAs = Item.UserProperties.Find("Utility") & vbcrlf & _
Item.UserProperties.Find("CityState")

Else
Item.FileAs=Item.UserProperties.Find("Utility")
End If
Else
Item.FileAS=Item.UserProperties.Find("CityState")
End If
End Function

Anybody know why it is doing this?
