Modify Default ContactForms

[Ben]

Hi all,

I try to change the default contact form by a personal contact form.
In all versions of Outlook it works, but on a PC with Outlook 2003 it
doesn't work

i've set keys in the register database :
Outlook 2000
WriteRegBin HKCU "Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Custom
Forms\Compose" "IPM.Contact" "MyCustomerFormId"
Outlook 2002
WriteRegBin HKCU "Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Custom
Forms\Compose" "IPM.Contact" "MyCustomerFormId"
Outlook 2003 +
WriteRegBin HKCU "Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Custom
Forms\Compose" "IPM.Contact" "MyCustomerFormId"

Is there anything else to do for Outlook 2003 ?

Thanks for all !

Ben

Yes, there are some known issues with this technique in OL2003. See this
