Using Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager Update SP2, how do I print a
report that shows only contacts in a particular group or category?

Using Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager Update SP2, how do I
print a
report that shows only contacts in a particular group or category?

Instead of a report, you can filter your views in Outlook to achieve the
same effect. Please look in Outlook 2003 help file for details on how to
customize views.

By the way, SP3 is the current release for BCM 2003. I link to it on my
site.

Leonid - thank you for the suggestion. It works, but in my category list I
have a category named “ACTIVE†and one named “INACTIVEâ€, so when I filter by
“ACTIVEâ€, it includes “INACTIVE†in the results. I tried placing “ACTIVE†in
quotes, but it didn’t work.

Also, your site has some great links. I'm downloading Office 2007 and the
latest BCM right now.

Thank you.

Tim

View -> Arrange By -> Categories - that's for BCM 2003.

It's easier in 2007.

Tim,
I used Business State field in the Contact and Account forms to select
either Active or Inactive, then sorted on Business State (not Business
Address State, which is the geographical state).
Categories can get messy, if you want to change all your Active categories
to Active field flags instead which makes for a much easier sort, ping again
and I will show you a shortcut.
