What is the trick here? I have forms with custom fields and I thought I was
getting pretty good at customizing forms, but Outlooks 2007 contacts form doesnt seem customizable. If i go to customize the form, the 2003 contacts form comes up. I simply want to add my dozen or so custom fields to the new "look" of the outlook 2007 contacts form. |

The standard contact form layout in OL2003 and OL2007 are not available to programmers, who will see the older layout when they put an Outlook 2003 contact form into design mode. For OL2007, a good workaround -- if all you want to do is add more fields -- might be to use the new form regions feature in Outlook 2007 to add a collapsible pane at the bottom of that main page.
