I am trying to change the name of User1 and User2 in the Outlook default
custom fields and trying to get my form to keep the names I insert after I
import files. Any suggestions?
 
It is not possible to change the name of any fields, standard or custom. Could you explain in more detail what you're trying to do?

Thank you for your response Sue. I have designed a new form from the original
Outlook Contact form. I need to add additional items to choose from, from the
Outlook Custom field. Then when I import my information I can map the
additional items. My item names are: Account Number, Block Number and Lot
Number. There are no fields similar in the Outlook Custom field for me to
use, so I need to create my own. This is for a property management company
and the information is necessary and would be extremely helpful for lookup
purposes.
 
Outlook has no ability to import to custom fields. That requires code or a third-party utility. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm
