Change Outlook 2003 Default Contact Form to match Outlook XP

[Hyde the darker side]

I'd like to change the layout of the default contact form in OL 2003 to be
the same as it was in OL XP.

I can see that in design mode the contact form is the same layout as it was
in XP, and I've managed to publish this older layout form in my copy of OL
2003, however it's only being applied to new contacts and I'd like to convert
all my existing contacts too (Approx 400 odd contacts in 10 categories).

How do I do that please?

Tried the DocMessageClass.exe and that appears to have done the trick. Many
thanks.
