Default Default fields in Create New Contact window

And then what? How do you save the new design to be used as the default form?
i am trying to simply change the order of the phone numbers; ie business
phone then business fax, then mobile etc. Is creating a new form going to
accomplish this? or is there an easier way in outlook 2003?
