Hi,

I have some contact information stored on BCM and I wish to convert it to Outlook contact and stop using BCM.

Is it possible?

Many thanks in advance.

Have you tried dragging a BCM contact to your Contacts folder?

FYI, there is a separate newsgroup for BCM issues -- microsoft.public.outlook.bcm

Hello,

This is just an update, and it works as you suggested.

Amazing although I don't have a clue why it works :)

It works because they're both Outlook contacts, just displayed with different forms.

Yes, you can just drag the BCM contacts to the Outlook Contacts folder and
they will move. If you right click and drag, you can choose to copy them.

Thanks,
Lon
