Business Contact Manager V2

[Guest]

Having recently been persuaded to upgrade to this, despite my concerns, I am
now experiencing significant problems with it.
1. I cannot modify the reports beyond the dialogue screen that is provided.
Crystal Reports 10 will not work with these reports
2. The paramters on the report dialogue screens , in the main are not
enabled - I want to add e-mail address to the main contact report and this
choice is simply not available.
3. When sending an e-mail, if I choose a BCM contact as well as a non-bcm
contact the mail will not send - if however I remove one or the other of the
addressees so that the message is going to either bcm only or non bcm, it
works fine.

I think this shows that Microsoft still have an enormous way to go to get
this to match even the most basic contact management systems on the market.
Roll on release 3,4,5 etc.

Is version 2 availible? I have v. 1
I agree that BCM is weak compare to other contact managment programs. Our
company just expanded and I was put in charge of the new offices computer and
IT work. All the computers had BCM with them, and I was excited that
Microsoft had something built right into Outlook I thought it would be worth
using but it's really weak lots of holes that I've been told will be fixed in
the newest release. When does the newest release come out?

Version 2 is now available - go to the microsoft outlook with bcm site and
download it from there - it is much better than 1 but still a very long way
short of the 'real thing'
