MS Office Forum / Outlook / Business Contact Manager / October 20062 - "BCM Contacts" and Regular "Contacts", 1 -Extracting Email List
1. When I have business contacts that I also to maintain in my regular contacts (for WM5 purposes, caller ID only works with regular contacts) - does that "file" get updates in both places when I update one or the other? 2. When I add new Business contacts in Outlook, how can I send the new contacts to BCM Cointacts, without duplicating the files that are already there? When I export a whole batch, doe sthe software automatically detect same entries and update, or does it creat duplicate files? 3. Any way to extract a list of emails from all contacts? I want to insert emails into email newsletter... Thank you. Uri See inline.....

No it doesn't. They are complete separate databases. > 2.

Try it on one that you know is already there and see if it duplicates itself or not. > 3. Any way to extract a list of emails from all contacts? I want to > insert emails into email newsletter...

If you send that many out at one time you may have issues with your ISP and Spam filters.

Outlook Mail Merge feature will create that newsletter for you based on an existing Word document. There is a view to see all e-mail addresses as well, if you want to do this manually. Search for mail merge in Outlook help. BCM has campaigns feature as well. Outlook will do the job just fine and I do this often. You may need a special arrangement with your ISP to enable you to send all this e-mail, however. SignatureLeonid S.
