Been far too long since I've dealt with the various BCM versions close-up so
can't give a definitive answer. Things have changed since then as far as
I've been told for the more current versions of BCM. As for ContactGenie
products & BCM - BCM folders are not supported but any other regular PST and
Exch based folders that exist within a BCM configuration are fully
supported.

BCM questions are also best posed in the BCM newsgroup where you should get
a better answer particularly as it relates to custom forms for BCM specific
folders. Quickest solution may also be just to create a dummy custom form
with a single field, publish it, and see if the BCM import/export wizard
makes your custom fields accessible. The correct answer to your question
will become immediately apparent. For point of reference, the Outlook BCM
import/export process is a different animal from the standard Outlook
configuration since the underlying BCM is actually stored in a SQL database.

Would the answer be different if I am using Business Contact Manager 2003?

Short answer: No.

Custom fields (user-defined fields) cannot be imported or exported via
Outlook import/export wizard whether origin is from a custom form or
simply
added to the standard form. You'll need to write your own code or use a
3rd
party program.

Two quick options for you a

CodeTwo Outlook Export (free)
http://www.codetwo.com/pages/freewar...ook_export.php

ContactGenie Exporter (CGX) (not free - various editions)
http://www.contactgenie.com/cgxfeatures.htm

For simple ad-hoc exporting - the CodeTwo product should suffice for most
(and it will export custom fields). Beyond that, CGX offer a fairly
comprehensive set of features which may or may not be applicable in your
particular situation.

If I create a custom contact form and use it as my default form, will
any
newly created fields show up in the "map fields" dialogue prior to
exporting
contacts? I saw this post somewhere but can't find it. Thanks much.
