Custom lists in BCM 2007

[Peter Marchert]

Hello,

in BCM 2007 you can edit some lists (e.g. the method of contact). Now
I`m searching for this list to read and/or write them by code.

I searched the filesystem and the registry but found nothing. I assume
that these informations are stored in a hidden mail item like
categories. Can somebody tell me how to handle this items?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards
Peter

BCM stores its data in an MSDE database, if that's what you mean. Anything
not supported by BCM that you write to the synched data in Outlook may be
overwritten or discarded when BCM synchs to the database from or to Outlook
however.

I don`t mean the data stored in the fields of the BCM. I mean the lists
which can be edited by the user and where the user can choose one of
some entries.

In BCM 2003 this lists were uneditable, in BCM 2007 you can edit this
lists.

Example: Open an account in BCM 2007 and goto the field "Account
rating". There is a combobox with some entries. The last "entry" named
"<Edit this list...>" opens an editor where you can edit this list.
This data I want to read by code.

Thanks
Peter

I have no idea where that data is stored, it might be in an Outlook folder
or in the BCM database. Try posting in a BCM group, they're a lot more
likely to know about BCM issues.

Ok, thank you.
