Account View - Business Contacts has 3 columns, 'Job Title', 'Business
Phone', 'E-mail'. Shouldn't this list show the Contact Names? Duh! Is
there a way to customize this listing?

Hi Quin
When in Accounts, go to View > Arrange By > Curent View > Customise Current
View > Fields
Here you can add or remove fields that you want to display.

Assuming you are in the "Account List" view; click "Customize Current View",
click "Fields", click "Contacts", click "Add", click "OK" and then click "OK"
again. The "Primary Contact" name should show up. This applies to virtually
any view in Outlook.

I think I know what you are referring to, because I am seeing the same result
on one of the three workstations connected to our BCM SQL database. You are
referring to the business contact list secton in an open Account, correct?
Every time I open an Account record, the associated business contacts listed
on that Account are displayed in only three columns..."Job Title," "Business
Phone," and "Email." I haven't found a way to permanently fix this viewing
problem; however, I have found that if I hover my cursor over the left edge
of the "Job Title" header, click and drag to the right, I can expand a column
that was not previously visible..."Full Name." If I then hover my cursor
over the left edge of the "Full Name" header, click and drag to the right, I
can expand another column "Primary"
I can't seem to find any settings to permanently increase the width of these
two columns to greater than zero. Every time I reopen an Account, the first
two (left-most) columns in the associated business contacts list disappear.
One of these fields is of course the most important field... "Full Name."

Has anyone figured out if this is an ongoing bug? I keep having these
columns also disappear and have to reboot my PC for it to correct. Any
update?

No, I haven't heard of an ongoing bug, but thank you for mentioning that the
reboot solves it temporarily. That will at least save me the time of
stretching those stubborn columns

I just ran into the same problem. I want to see different columns and
information in my contact overview. Everytime i customize all this and i
click on another view it's gone when i come back.
I really need a fix for that. Hopefully someone can help?
