Apply Custom Form to Existing Contacts?

I've created a custom form for my contacts.

When I create a new contact, it automatically comes up in this format.
However, all the existing contacts are in the standard/original form format.

Is there a way to "convert" the existing contacts to the new form? It's the
same data and same fields, just arranged differently.

THANKS!!!
 
Yep - there's something on that site that might work. Problem is, I've got a
sub-folder for the contacts with the custom form and I don't want to change
the form for the main folder.

I tohught Outlook had some sort of built-in utility to do this. The process
on www.outlookcode.com requires registry changes and cautions that there may
be other issues that occur when running the utility.

I'll probably just live with the existing contacts the way they are.

Thanks very much for the quick response and help!!
 
You can use our utility - ContactGenie Msg Class Modifier (free) -
http://www.contactgenie.com/cgtmcm.htm. This will change the custom form
assignments of all existing contacts selected. Just as an FYI - changing
individual contact custom form assignments doesn't involve the registry.
Also the custom form assigned to a single folder doesn't carry forward to a
subfolder created (or vice versa).
