Hallo to every body!
I'm writing you because i have a problem and someone of you could help me.

I created a new custom form task and it has been pubblished in a pubblic folder task.
The problem is that when I try to select the pubblic folder in order to open new task from contact ( Using menu: Action -> New Task for Contact) the form that appears in the standard one instead of my custom form.

Thanks
 
Is your custom form the default for that folder? If not then the Actions
menu command will always open the default form. Right-click on the public
folder in the Folder List and select Properties in the context menu. Make
sure your custom form is set as the default in the "When posting to this
folder" dropdown on the General tab.

If I follow what you're saying the only way to do what you want is to set
your form as the default for all tasks anywhere. An alternative would be to
add your own custom menu item to the Actions menu for all newly opened
contact items by trapping the NewInspector event and creating the menu item
if the Inspector.CurrentItem is a contact item where you want the menu item
added. That would require a COM addin or code running in the Outlook VBA
project however..
