Sure can and it was possible on all versions. In the Contacts Folder, turn
on the Advanced Toolbar and use the Field Chooser. It has a New button that
enables you to make new fields.

I use new fields in a table view eg Phone List.

Are we able to create additional fields, and assign unique field names to
them? I have recently switched to Outlook 2007.
