Form can't be viewed
 

I created a new form for certain types of contacts. After I designed and
published the form, I realized that I stored the form with some contact
information in it, so when ever I created a "new" contact, the correct form
came up, but with someone's contact info in it.

I went into tools/forms/choose form, found the form, opened it up, deleted
the contact info, and then published the form. When I went to create the
next new contact, it worked fine.

Then I left my contact list (I may have closed Outlook altogether, I don't
remember). Now when I go into my contacts and try to create a new form, I
get a message telling me "The form required to view this contact cannot be
displayed. Contact your administrator."

When I tried to select the form again using tools/forms/choose, etc., it was
still listed, but I couldn't open it.

Any suggestions, thoughts? Thanks for any info.

What happens when you try to open the form with Tools | Forms | Choose Form? The same error? Can you open it in design mode?
