Business Contact Manager 2007 SP1 After importing contacts from ACT, my US customers have been imported with "United States, USA" in the country field. Because of this, the Zip Code shows in the business card before the city/town. If I change the country to "United States of America", everything corrects itself. I have over 3000 US contacts. How can I look up by the "country"...

You can add your new field "Acct. #" to your group or you can create or rename that group. When you go to "customize form" you highlight the group that you want to add the new field to or you create a new group for it first and then highlight it. You then click on "Add field" and create your "Acct. #" field which will then later show up under the group. Is this what you mean? Maybe...

Bohd, I 'Google' error codes to find out what they mean. In this case, one site suggests that you are installing to a substituted drive and Microsoft, at the following URL, gives a lot of informatin about configurations which won't work. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923100#Configurations Whilst this information may give a clue, I have found it risky to assume that the corrrect...

Also, with your hardware, you should have received a...
