changing content of a standard outlook2000 field

[Robin Heinrich]

hi there!

i was wondering if someone knows a way to change the content of a field in
outlook2000 using vba. i dont wanna create a whole new form all i need is a
name of a field i can use.

what i want to do is: look through my addressbook and write the names and
age into a field of those people whose birthday is at the specific day. i
dont want to have this only in the calender. but also see it no matter which
folder is opened in outlook. i am thinking something similar to the status
bar at the bottom of the outlook window.

greets rob
