Default How to publish an existing contact form which I edited into a new

I worked for days to create a form; however, I might have started incorrectly.
What I did was:

1 – I edited the existing contact form (I spent hours and hours doing so)
and then I saved this form.
2 – This is now “living” in as a contact in the contact folder (I created a
new contact folder called “Patients”)
3 – All the info in the fields are left blank.
4 – Now I must be able to publish this form and make this form the standard
document form for my practise (patient contact) isn’t it? Or do I have to
start all over again... I hope not
5 – If I the above is correct and I am still able to use this "blanc contact
for", how do I publish this form so that this form becomes the standard form
every time I have a new patient contact?
6 – Would you please be so kind to inform me the step by step procedure to
make this form available as the standard form (I am using a one single
computer?).

Sorry for my English writing as I am Dutch living in France. Also all the
procedures writting I found so difficult to understand. Thas why I ask you
kindly to help me out with the most simple procedure in how to publish a
form.

Thank you for your help.

After you design a form, while still in design mode, publish it with the
Tools | Forms | Publish Form command. If you saved the form as an Outlook
item rather than publishing it or making a backup copy as an .oft file, you
should still be able to publish by opening that item and using the same
command.

See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=39 for information on making
it the default form.
