How do I copy Outlook "Contact" record to a "Business Contact" rec Indyman 2/1/2007 5:25:00 PM Is there an easy or automatic way to copy existing information from an Outlook Contact record to the more detailed Outlook Business Contact record? Currently I'm using multiple cut and pastes. There's got to be a better way!

Re: How do I copy Outlook "Contact" record to a "Business Contact" rec "Lon Orenstein" <Lon[ at ]pinpointtools.com> 2/1/2007 5:59:29 PM Yep, it's really easy -- just drag and drop the contact from the Contacts folder to the Business Contacts folder. BCM and Outlook figure out which fields to map and it works just fine.

RE: How do I copy Outlook "Contact" record to a "Business Contact" rec Clinton Ford [MSFT] 2/1/2007 6:03:03 PM If you want to copy selected Outlook contacts, hold the CTRL key as you click on them. Then use the right mouse button to drag the selected contacts to the "Business Contacts" folder in Business Contact Manager. When you release the right mouse button, you'll have the option to copy or move the selected contacts. You can also open an individual Outlook Contact, click the round Office button in the upper-left corner of the form and choose "Move | Copy to folder" from the menu. Then select the "Business Contacts" folder in Business Contact Manager. If you'd like to import all Outlook contacts, follow these steps: From the main Outlook menu, select "File | Import and Export | Business Contact Manager for Outlook... | Next | Outlook Contacts folder". Then follow the remaining wizard steps. -- Visit team blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/bcm This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights "Indyman" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Is there an easy or automatic way to copy existing information from an > Outlook Contact record to the more detailed Outlook Business Contact record? > Currently I'm using multiple cut and pastes.
