Version Used - Outlook 2002.
I use outlook contacts for maintaining data. A lot of data has already been entered in the Contacts Records by using the usual template. I have created a new template with additional fields, and would like to use it for the other contact records also. How do I go about it? Do I have to redo all the contacts records by using the new template, or is there a method of replicating the new template for the existing records, so that only the additional fields in the new template have to be filled up? Best regards |

You need to change the MessageClass on the existing items to point to your new form's class. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools and scripts to accomplish this.

So, use a different tool or script. There's more than one.
