I have the Business Contact Manager add-in for Outlook.
I am trying to design my own page using the "Account" form.
When I rename the (Custom) page....it will not allow me to save it.
It is looking for data in the Account name.
In the design mode, it should not be looking for data.
Can anyone help?
If you're going to try to customize the BCM forms (unsupported, and I didn't
get anywhere with it), you can't do it with the BCM COM add-in running,
because of issues like this, where the add-in is trying to enforce its own
data integrity rules.

Thanks Sue.....That answers my question.
I had high hope of using BCM but can't if I can not modify the forms.
Don't know how to shut down BCM and still modify the forms.
Thanks again.

You can disable BCM manually. Make a backup of the registry, run Regedit and
go to the
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Microsoft.BusinessSolutions.eC
RM.OutlookAddin.Connect.1 key. Change the LoadBehavior value to something
other than 3, then restart Outlook.
