Outlook should let me categorize contacts without Biz Contact Mgr

[Megaptera1969]

With hundreds of contacts in Outlook, the program should allow user defined
categories to sort contacts by groups, such as Coworkers, Suppliers, etc.
While Business Contact Manager may be a more robust contact management
application, for those of us at work without access to the CD to install the
Business Contact Manager addin, the simple addition of a category to the
Outlook contact would add tremendous value.

Have you looked at the bottom of the contact form? All Outlook versions support the use of the Categories field on all items.
