Adding Field to Form and Saving It ...

[Andrew Peskin]

I would like to add a field to my "Contact" form and then save the form,
so every time I edit or add a new contact this field is present ... I
can edit the form, I can not figure out how to save the form with the
changes I made ... any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks.

Andrew

You need to publish the form, not save the item whose form you modified. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpub.htm and http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm

Thanks for the advice for setting a default form ... Is there any way to
make that new form the default form when you open an existing contact
already entered into Outlook using a previous form?

Thanks again

Andrew

Yes, the second URL I suggested covers that scenario.
