I have designed and published a form that I want to use as the default for
sending new email messages. How do I install it as my default message form?

Go to http://www.outlook-code.com/ and search on "default", without the
quotes and all will be revealed.

Sorry; I don't see the answer here. I have zero experience in programming
forms so maybe I'm missing something that others would find obvious.

Bad idea. Using a custom email form almost certainly guarantees that at least some of your recipients won't get attachments you send.

Maybe we should start at the beginning and talk about why you think a custom form would be a good solution.
