Default Customizing Contact Tab Appearance

I am running Outlook2000 under WinXP/SP2.

Is there any way to customize the fields that are displayed in the standard
tabs? Or even add new tabs?

Sue: that link was helpful and I have played around a bit with Outlook
Forms. One particular form at that site is the Company form. Following the
direction, I downloaded, the form and published it in my Contacts Folder (I
was careful about that) It works fine, but there is no "pick" in the new
menu for a company (as the instructions said there would be). I can navigate
to Form, User Forms, Contacts, etc and open the Form, but ... What might be
wrong?

I don't know what you mean by "'pick' in the new menu." Any form that you publish to a folder will be available on the Actions menu for that folder.

I assumed that when I selected "New" from the top menu that "Company" would
appear along with the other "new" selections. But Company does appear on the
Actions menu and that is good enough.

Thanks
