How do I merge my BCM 2003 database with my Outlook 2003 database?

[Guest]

For years I have used Outlook 2003 for email, and Act! for my database and
contact management. I recently stopped using Act!, and now use Outlook
exclusively. I downloaded BCM 2003, imported all my Act! records into it -
and it works flawlessly. But I now have two databases - my Outlook Contacts
(mostly emails) and my BCM Business Contacts. Many are duplicated between the
two. Ths real issue is: I use a BlackBerry Pearl, which apparently does not
support BCM. So, I would like to import all my contact info (just contact
info, not notes or other data)from BCM into Outlook. I want this for
BlackBerry synchronization purposes; it's something I probably would have to
update on a regular basis. Is there a way to do that without duplicating ALL
my contacts.

jeff z,

Here is an Outlook-Centric contact management solution that unlike BCM does
NOT require you to have a separate contact db from Outlook: www.avidian.com.
A lot of former ACT users are very happy with this add-in.
