Business Contact Manager

[Marjorie Cox]

I have just started using BCM with Outlook 2003 but the
contacts are not synching with my IPAQ. What good is a
contact manager if I must be at my desk to access?

The ActiveSync program from Microsoft definitely cannot synchronize
multiple contacts or journal folders, which is what BCM uses. Third-party
tools may be able to do so. Chapura has updated its PocketMirror
Professional utility to work with the Business Contacts folder from BCM.

A forthcoming version of Intellisync will support BCM, but the version 5.3
or earlier does not.

I have also heard of people using Pocket Contact Synchronizer, a free tool
from Microsoft, to copy contacts automatically from the BCM Business
Contacts folder to your main Contacts folder. The main Contacts folder can
be synchronized with any PDA sync tool.
