Comments record length cannot exceed 4000 in Comments of BCM, Outlook 2003

[Chris Street]

We have many contacts that have more than 4000 characters in the
Comments section of Contacts. We want to automatically transfer all of
these legacy comments to the Business Contact within Outlook 2003
(Business Contact Manager) but the field length has maximum 4000. Has
anyone got an add on that will create a Business Note for any
characters exceeding the 4000 limit?

 

[Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]]

The limitation is in the BCM database. The obvious solution would be to to
create multiple notes, each less than 4000 characters.

FYI, there is a separate BCM group -- microsoft.public.outlook.bcm
