Does anyone know a way to remove built-in categories and
replace them with our own?

Create a new contact and press the Categories... button. Then press the
Master Category List... button. You can control it here.

Sorry, I meant in code.
To permanently remove built-in categories and to add
company specific categories company-wide.

Alright, you can create the list on a computer the way you want it and then
export the following key;
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Categories]
(where 11.0 stands for Office 2003)

When you import this key at startup they've got the template category list.

If you want to do it in code check the developers newsgroup;
outlook.program_vba
