Default Adding contact information to custom form

I created a custom Outlook contact form and I can view the form when I select
Action -- New (the name of the form). Then, I select the the contact form
and all of the customized fields a visible, however when I do an import (with
a csv file -same fields) the default contact form is used. How do I get the
information from the csv file into my customize form and view that form when
needd?

Thanks in advance.

Default Adding contact information to custom form

Outlook does not support importing to a custom form, nor importing custom fields. You would need to write your own import code or use a third-party tool. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm
