Populate Form with Outlook Contact Data
 
I have stored all my clients' information in Outlook 2003 contact.
Is there any application / interface (desktop or web based) where I can
design a form and pull a client's information into the form?

Let's assume that I have a client with info below:
First Name: John
Last Name: Smith

When I enter the first name and last name into the form fields and click on
a button (auto-populate), the engine will go search on Outlook contact to
populate all the other fields which match the contact fields.

Would appreciate if there is any solution for this problem. Thanks.

This is certainly possible with Outlook automation (see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/vb.htm to get started), but since it's not clear what kind of "form" you're trying to create or for what purpose or in what programming language, it's hard to get into any details.
