Modifying the "Account" form in Business Contact Manager

[Guest]

I would like to use the default "Account" form as a template to design a form that meets my specific needs. I tried this already and ran into several problems. Is this possible or does Business Contact Manager treat this form differently than standard outlook forms

If I can change it, is there certain features that BCM is looking for that must be present?

Yes, it's different. BCM forms officially are not customizable. I spent
some time during the beta trying to develop some custom forms and didn't get
very far.

For now I just need to add some data to this form, is that workable?

No, BCM forms are not customizable. Remember that they're actually writing
data to an MSDE database.
