You could create your own user defined fields ( I believe you cannot export these though) in your contact or use fileds that are not used by you. Also go to Tools - Forms - Design a form, and change the labels or even add the fields to the main contact page.. Go to Views Current Views, Customise... to create the display you want . As previous mentioned it is difficult to...

When System Builders buy OEM Office licenses now, they get media-less packages. The reasoning being that they should already have the disks from their pre-instalation kit. Since you ordered Small Business Edition, they should have installed BCM for you. I would get on their case and have them come and install the missing software. Also, with your hardware, you should have received a...
