Before installing BCM I had just one contacts database: "Contacts". Now I have two: "Contacts" and "Business Contacts in BCM". How can I make them one and the same one? When I add a contact for Account, program searches in "Business Contacts in BCM". And when I get an e-mail, right-click on the sender, the program wants to add a new entry to "Contacts" database - to make it available for Accounts, I must copy the new contact to "Business Contacts in BCM" manually.

Besides, if anything in the contact details changes (like new phone number, e-mail, etc.), I must enter new data in both databases.

So - is there any way to make these two databases into one?
 
No there is not.
And yes, I also find that hard to believe.

So, I right clik mouse on the contact in the Contacts folder and drag
it to BCM folder doing a copy.
 
Nope.

I rignt click and drag the contact in the main Contact folder over to
the BCM folder. This will copy the information over. However now it is
in two places.

Rally nice of Microsoft to create BCM in such a grapy way. I hope they
fix this soon. Its been over a year though.
