Remarks
Business Contact records organize information about Business Contacts. A Business Contact can exist as a standalone record, or as a record nested within an Account object. You can add an Opportunity, Business Project, or communication history items—Appointment, Business Note, E-Mail Message, File, Phone Log, and Task—to a Business Contact record. You cannot programmatically copy Outlook contacts into Business Contact Manager for Outlook.
By using the Outlook object model, you can programmatically:
- Create a new Business Contact.
- Select an existing Business Contact.
- Edit Business Contact properties.
- Link or unlink Business Contacts to an Account.
- Delete a Business Contact.
The Business Contacts folder contains Business Contact records.
