Saving Categories when Backing up BCM
jennifer 2/26/2007 2:45:38 PM
A colleague and I share our BCM database by backing up to a server and then
updating on our laptops. When we do this however, the categories we have
selected are not updated. Is there a way to preserve the categories? or do
they only remain with the original author?

Are you using Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007?
Is the "Categories" field actually empty on when you open Business Contacts that were modified?
Or are the new categories not showing up in Outlook's master categories list (Actions | Categorize | All Categories...)?

category list are not showing up on his master category list
