OutLook 2003 Contact Form

[CathyM]

When I customize the default contact form the form changes its look (no photo
etc.). Why is this?

 

[Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]]

The new contact form layout in OL2003 and the included picture control are not available to programmers, who will see the older layout when they put an Outlook 2003 contact form into design mode. One workaround is to use an image control, as described at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpicture.htm#control .

For other contact form idiosyncracies, see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/contactform.htm
