Apply New Form to Existing Contacts

Apply new form to existing entries

We have about 900 contacts in out public contact list and
we have created a new form that we would like to apply
against those contacts.

Can this be done?

We are using Outlook 2000/2003. Exchange 2000 if that
matters.

Please help. I don't to have to reenter these contacts.
We have added a couple new tabs to the default Contact
Form, now we would like to apply this new template to all
contacts.

Thanks,
Rick Cass

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.
