Best practice for storing company-related info?

[dan]

To file information related to a company in general, not to one of its contacts
in particular. Things like their main line of business, link to other companies,
etc.


I do not need a full-fledged CRM app, not even Business Contacts. Only store
some basic common data.
I was wondering if there is a known best practice for filing this in Outlook
2003.

Thanks

My practice (and I don't claim it to be "best"), is to create a contact whose
File As is the comany and then keep the information such as you describe in
the notes pane of the contact record.

Thanks, Brian.
That's an easy and practical idea.
