Default Format phone numbers

By doubleclicking on any phonenumber field in a standard contact form there
is a dialog displayed to format the phone number. This is a useful tool, but
this feature does not work after the outlook form is changed. I only changed
the format and colours, not the controls. How can I change this so the
formatting feature for phone numbers is enabled again?

Don't do anything with the general tab of contact form. This is the first
feature to break, but you can also lose email address formatting. If you must
customize the Outlook form, then make all your customizations on a back tab.

For your specific case, stop using your custom form, and change all the contact
MessageName field back to the standard name.
