Contact Form, General Tab changes

[Meredith]

I am trying to add a single field to the Outlook 2003
Contact form on the general tab. 2003 has a different
layout than previous versions and I would like to keep
that intact. The problem is that as soon as I make any
modification to the general tab, the form reverts back to
the old style. Is there a way to avoid this?

Thanks!
Meredith

The new contact form layout in OL2003 and the included picture control are
not available to programmers, who will see the older layout when they put an
Outlook 2003 contact form into design mode. One workaround is to use an
image control, as described at
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpicture.htm#control .
