Do Outlook & BCM share all contact info 'out of the box' ?

[WestCoastFan]

I am brand new to Outlook and BCM 2007 and am curious if I need to
configure/setup anything in order to share business contacts across the two
applications?

Is there a good link that shows me all of the basics of BCM w/Outlook 2007?

Thanks very much!

This is a reasonable idea, but not enough reasonable for the wise guys
in MS. So you can't do it, only going around. This is - almost - two
separete independent applications. The benefit you get by use on same
interface, that Outlook now starts definetely slower.

No, BCM is integrated to the point that it's a component of Outlook.
Anything in BCM can be seen in Outlook, and really, that's the only
way to view that information.

Now, there IS a difference between Outlook email contacts and BCM
business contacts. They're clearly separated into their own lists,
though, so there should be no confusion. If you're asking whether or
not it's possible to convert email contacts into business contacts,
then I can't answer that question, though something tells me it must
be possible to do so.
