New Contact form
 
I have created a new Contact form in Outlook 2007. The name of the nes for
is "New" and it is stored in "Personal Forms Library." I right click on
Contacts folder, and changed where it said "When posting to this folder,
use:" to "New." I also went to "Forms" tab and clicked "Manage" and added my
new form to the box there. I then went to where it says "Allow these forms
in this folder" and tried to click "Only forms listed above" because I also
want to pull up existing contacts using this form. This box was grayed out
and would not allow me to do this. What do I need to do? Thanks!!

You need to change the message class for all existing contacts to the new
form name - either of the two free utilities below will serve the
purpose - there is no option within Outlook itself that allows you to do
that.
