Default Moving contacts from one form to another

I have a contact list on the standard outlook form.

I have created a new form, with an extra field on it.

What is the best way to get the contacts onto the new form?

Thank you.

Richard

You need to change the value of the MessageClass property on the existing items to point to your new form's class. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/newdefaultform.htm#convert for several tools and scripts to accomplish this.
