Change the default form in created contacts in Outlook - forms

You know that Outlook has a default form to show contacts(this one)
and I have my own form created(this one)
I want to see all my contacts like my own form,but I only can create new contacts with that form.I can't modify the created ones,which are with the default form.
How can I do that?
Could I do it with a macro?Any idea?
Thank you very much

Forms are associated with the message class. You need to change the MessageClass property values for contacts where you want to get the form shown. For example, when an item is selected, Outlook uses the message class to locate the form and expose its properties.

Is there a setting to force user stories to be linked to a parent?

There is a setting for forcing story points to be entered when creating a work item (e.g. user story) in the layout processes field options, but is there one for mandating linking of work item/story to a parent?
There isn't a straight forward way to do that.
A good option is to create a custom field in User Story work item in your inherited process.
And set the work item rule to make required the value of this field when creating User Stroy.
Check the UI output by using the rule. This could be a reminder to link the parent work item.
Update 1:
You still need to manually add link as Related Work.
The required value for the custom field works as a reminder for the users when creating the User Story.
You could also define the custom field as Picklist(string). When a user creates a new User Story, he could add Related Work links and pick a value for the custom field in order to save this User Story.

E-mail hyperlinks: reading href value

So when you click on an email hyperlink, it opens up a new mail message window in the default mail client (Outlook in my case). You can append Subject, Body, CC and BCC fields directly to the email hyperlink and your mail client will automatically populate those values in the corresponding boxes. An example hyperlink field would be:
Send Mail
So here we go. User clicks the hyperlink and a new inspector window is opened by Outlook. I'm listening to NewInspector event in my Outlook add-in. Can I somehow get the full href of the link that was clicked to bring up this inspector window?
The reason I want this is that I'm appending some custom fields to the hyperlink, which obviously are not understood by Outlook. Can I get the entire href value through some direct property, or COM?
No, the Outlook object model (nor the mailto: protocol) doesn't provide anything for that. Instead, you can automate Outlook to fill the required values programmatically. For example, if Outlook is already running you can use the following code:
// If so, use the GetActiveObject method to obtain the process and cast it to an Application object.
application = Marshal.GetActiveObject("Outlook.Application") as Outlook.Application;
Read more about that in the How to: Get and Log On to an Instance of Outlook article. Also you may find the C# app automates Outlook (CSAutomateOutlook) sample project helpful.

create a from and show entered details in another page in orchard cms

just created a from using "custom form" with input fields like - "Title", "Caption", "Alternate Text", and a button called "Submit". After submit i need to show the entered input fields as an output in another page. How can i achieve this.
Pls guide me with step by step solution. I am not a developer, Im just a designer
So, you created a custom type and added those fields.
Then created a custom form with this type.
You can configure the form to redirect after submit thanks to an textbox that allows to use Tokens, i.e dynamic information retrieved by the content.
Thanks to this, you should be able to redirect to the display url of the content.
To display the output the way you want in another page, you need to make an override of your content in your theme.
You can enable the 'Shape tracing' feature to generate this alternate view of your content and then modify it as you want.

How do I set different signup forms for the same MailChimp list?

I need to set different signup forms for the same MailChimp list. For example:
A signup form with just Name and E-mail.
A signup form with just Name, E-mail, City and Company.
A complete signup form with all fields available.
These different signup forms would be applied on different circumstances, but they would all register the subscriber on the same list.
Please let me know when this will be implemented.
Thanks a lot!
If you goto Form Builder in Mailchimp choose Embedded forms.
When in here choose the 'Naked' option.
This provides you the raw html that you can then amend. Eg. I removed the first name and last name and fields that came with it.
Be aware that if you have any required fields, you will not be able to submit form without them included. There is a link to the form editor which let's you choose which fields are required.

Multiple Contact Forms on Magento

I'm looking to create a new contact form for enquiries on Magento. Creating a module from scratch for this seems like a bit of a waste of time. Does anyone know the most sensible and quickest way for this to happen?
Thanks!
In CMS>Manage Pages create and enable a new page (or you could use a static block) e.g. call the page My Contact Form with a url ID of my-contact-form and a layout that matches your theme. For the content of the new page add
{{block type='core/template' template='contacts/mycontactform.phtml'}}
Now in your template folder (app/design/frontend/default/default/template/contacts for default theme in Magento 1.3.x) copy the existing form.phtml file, rename it to mycontactform.phtml and copy it back to the contacts folder. Edit the new mycontactform.phtml code and html as you wish to create your new contact form.
Load the new form by going to http://www.example.com/my-contact-form
Hope that helps...
In adendum to paj answer: You also have to edit the email template to include whatever new fields you just added.
Keep in mind that both your new contact form and Magento original contact form (an whatever future contact forms you may add in the future with in this way) will all use the same email template.
So in order to have meaningful emails sent, you need to "program" the template using the {{depend}} directive
