Default contact form assignment

Having worked with outlook contact form for a couple of weeks, iv noticed
that when you create a contact then that contact always opend with the form
it was created with. Now suppose there is a list of old contacts that you
want to be viewed with a new form.
Does outlook 2003(or other version) allow you to assign a new form for
viewing old contact?

Default contact form assignment

You need to change the MessageClass on the existing items to point to your new form's class. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools and scripts to accomplish this.
