Combine Hotmail and Outlook Contacts
I have outlook 2007 installed. I am NOT connected to a server or corporate
account. I have contacts in outlook and also have contacts in hotmail. The only account I currently have in use through outlook 2007 is hotmail. Is there a way to have one contact list? Right now I have hotmail contacts and outlook contacts... I haven't tried outlook connector, but from what I read, it only allows you to access the hotmail contacts in outlook... which is great, but does not solve my problem of one contact list. I guess I could put all of my contact information into hotmail... the challenge with that is when I click on "add to contacts", as i used outlook 2007 primarily to access my hotmail, or try to use business contact manager, i don't think it will add to hotmail... I hope I am making sense.. would truly appreciate any assistance!!

The BCM contacts will always be separate, since it's ad add-in to Outlook that uses a different format for the data, from what I gather. How are you accessing the Hotmail data in Outlook now, if you're not using the Connector? If you use the Connector and make the Hotmail data file your delivery location, you can have everything in Hotmail except folders for which Hotmail has no equivalent, like Tasks and Journal. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
