Default Good Call Log Concept?

The answer is you don't.

Each type is a different form and MessageClass based on a different MAPI
type: IPM.Note (mail), IPM.Contact, IPM.Appointment, etc. Each type can only
host related properties. So if you expect to add appointment properties to a
journal or contact item forget it.

You can add text fields to a form where the data isn't native, but other
types of fields may or may not work.

I would do 2 things. First, review the forms information at
www.outlookcode.com to get the basics of form design and review the forms
material in Sue's book. Second. post forms design questions in the
appropriate group, in this case microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms.

Another question for you on this subject -
How would I best design a form combining Journal, Calendar, and Contact
properties? I think this would answer my needs, if there is an option to
add
new calendar and contact info.

Thanks.
