Create New Contact from Same Company in BCM?
by TWl0Y2ggRA » Thu, 16 Aug 2007 05:24:01 GMT
I am a recent newcomer to Outlook 2007 and Business Contact Manager (BCM).
While working with my "Contacts" I am able to create a new contact from the
same company as one of my exisiting contacts. This is simply done by
selecting the existing Contact, and then selecting "Actions", followed by
"New contact from same company".
I can't figure out how to do the same thing within BCM. Any suggestions?

1.Outlook 2007 - BCM - Create Contact from existing company?
Hello, I was just wondering if there is a way to create a contact from an
existing company in the Outlook 2007 Business Contact Manager. Outlook 2003
BCM had it and it was great time saver. Adding all of my business cards from
trips now is almost unbearable as I have to enter all of the information
manually each and every time.
Any replacements for this? Is it just really hidden or just a missing feature?
Thanks for any advice.

3.auto-populating the company name field when creating a new contact
I've been manually creating several new contacts all from the same company
and it's a bit tedious. Is there a way to use/create a drop down menu box to
help populate some of the various fields such as the Company name field or
others?
I've been copying/pasting the company name from a newly made contact to the
nxt new one I'm making.
Thanks-

Sorry, I didn't realize that there was actually a BCM section and so posted
this question original in Outlook General.

5.Creating BCM.Account & BCM.Contact items in Technical Refresh
I'm experiencing problems with an add-in I'm developing after installing the
Technical Refresh.
Previously when I created a BCM.Account or a BCM.Contact object, all the BCM
specific item properties existed, now none of them are so things are going
pear shaped in my application.
I can create these properties after I create the object but why are they no
longer created by default when the object is created. Seem a little bizare
that this used to work but now it dosn't, I can't believe that this is an
'feature enhancement'.
