Default How do I change the "tab" order when entering a new contact?

When entering a new contact, I'd like to be able tab to just the fields I'm
using, not having to go through all the fields just to get to the Business
Address, etc. Is there a way to do this? Thanks!!

Open the form, click Tools/Formlars/Customize this form. Then right click
the concerned controls, choose Advanced Properties, and change the value for
TabIndex. If you're done, click Tools/Formulars/Publish Forms.

I'm using Outlook 2007 and when I open the "New Contact" form, the Tools menu
is not an option. Please advise. Thanks!

In the New Contact Form, click "Developer" "Design this Form", then
follow the original instructions from "right-click...".
