When I try and empty (or delete) my deleted items folder in outlook, I
receive the following message: messaging interface has returned an unknown
error. If the problem persists, restart outlook.
I would create a new outlook data file, but I don't want to lose my address

I have spen several hours with MS tech suport trying to fix the slow BCm and
Outlook 2007 crashing.  I was trying to convert from the latest Act to BCM.
BCM would not search, and ourlook would have to check the database everytime
I open outlook.

Or are you just adding BCM to your bag of supported software?
I ask because I'm trialling Act! 2007, which I never thought I would after
the ACt 2005 debacle, and I actually like it...
Thoughts?

I'm trying to enter a field in my business contact manger.  I want the field
"cell" added but can not seem to be able to do this.  Does anyone know if Im
waseing my time or can they send me in a direction to research this.
Thank You--

Since getting useful reports (including comment detail on communications
history) isn't possible, can I link to a BMC database from Access to get
better reports as well as update data in BMC?????

Still waiting for an official announcment from microsoft regarding the
addition of form letters, envelope and fax printing from Outlook BCM 2007.
Any set date ??
Thanks,

I am using the trial version of BCM and decided to buy it. I'm not buying it
via an unlock code. I'll have new CD's to install.  I'm worried that once I
install the new full version...I'll lose my custom forms I created with the
trial version? How do I save or back up my custom ...

When I am viewing a contacts history, I cannot find any customize view
options to see "project name".
Some Biz Contacts have multiple projects and I would like to customize the
history view so that I can see phone logs, emails, notes, by which project it

I have troubles running BCM on a second PC. The installation works
well but after starting outlook and BCM configuration i get the
following error: "Cannot find element" (My Installation is German so
the original error message is : Das Element kann nicht gefunden

I initially used BCM with Outlook 2003 and it seemed to have so many problems
that it was unclear that MS would actually fix it moving forward, so I quit
using it.
Has MS actually fixed it, is it more usuable?  Is it more integrated into

Does BCM support more than one database?  If so, how is a name assigned to a
specific database?  How would the second BCM database be created?  Does the
BCM file have a specific extension?  In which default folder is the BCM
database stored?

I have successfully transfered my outlook and BCM data to my new laptop. The
only thing that did not seem to transfer is my long list of follow-up flags.
Is there a way to transfer this from one computer to another?

We are using BCM 2003 at my worksplace currently. We are going to be
upgrading over the next few months to 2007 but we would like to make it a
slow process and train on the way.
Is there a way for the people who have already upgraded to 2007 access and
