Default Is it possible to convert BCM contacts to Outlook contacts?

Hi,

I have some contact information stored on BCM and I wish to convert it to Outlook contact and stop using BCM.

Is it possible?

Many thanks in advance.

Have you tried dragging a BCM contact to your Contacts folder?

FYI, there is a separate newsgroup for BCM issues -- microsoft.public.outlook.bcm

Hello,

This is just an update, and it works as you suggested.

Amazing although I don't have a clue why it works

It works because they're both Outlook contacts, just displayed with different forms.
