When trying to print report "business contacts by account" I want it to show
the company name not the company principal. How do I do that? I have 2007
 
Can you clarify little bit? Are you talking about the Company Name that you
can add to Report Header?
 
Right, when you try to print a report you can make it show everything except
company name. I don't really care about the pricipals name of the company but
I need Company names

I ran into the same problem today. It looks like if you don't have an account
for that contact, the company name cannot be shown?

I urgently need the company name in my report too. I hope there is a way to
customize these reports more?

Help!

This situation is likely due to the fact that BCM's design is based upon the
assumption by MS that ALL linked Business Contacts to an Account are going to
be from the same company. This limiting one-size-fits-all assumption is also
likely why you can link ONLY 1 Account record per Business Contact.

Hi there

I realise I've come to this conversation a bit late, but...

Did you knnow that you can link to the BCM 2007 data from MS Access and produce all sorts of reports? The company name from the Business Contacts view is available there, so I think this may well solve your problem.

All the best
