Two Contacts Databases?

P

P Fruin

When I moved my ACT! Database to BCM, I now have two contact databases to
choose from when I enter a name for an e-mail address! (And can't you just
type a last name in the TO: field to insert an e-mail address from the
Contact database? Do you actually have to choose from a list every time?) My
two databases are the one I had imported from ACT! into Outlook and then
essentially the same database that I converted to BCM. How do I work with
just one database and can I get the BCM database to show in the Contacts
section on the left side of Outlook where Mail, Calendar and Tasks are?

I think the BCM database will only show up when the folder view is
chosen.
In the Contacts section, BCM's Accounts and Business Contacts folder
should show up.

Thanks Luther. And do you know what you have to do to just type a last name
in the TO: field to insert an e-mail address from the Contact database as
oppossed to having to press the TO: button and pick names from the list??

I do not, but that is probably a generic Outlook matter, and not
specific the BCM.

You could try asking on microsoft.public.outlook.
