Default Outlook contacts should allow multiple people per company

Indeed, you have crossed the line from Outlook to CRM. Outlook was never
developed as CRM software.

Russ - I can see why PrezWeezy would want this, I think I would find it
useful... I work with a number of clients organising events. I'd like to
be
able to have one contact 'card' for each organisation, where I can add
categories for which client they 'belong to', each event the company is
participating in or has participated in, for their switchboard number and
website, but then have individual entries for the people I need to contact
in
that organisation, eg their direct and mobile phone numbers and email
addresses. I don't think 'By Company' view gives me this flexibility,
does
it? And I can't group by Category while in 'By Company' view, can I? So
in
'By Company' I get every company, regardless of which client/event
categories
they each belong to. Maybe as Diane suggests, BCM is the more appropriate
solution...

Can't imagine why anyone would need to do this. Never seen it requested.
What would it achieve that the By company view does not?

I have companies which I deal with 5 or 6 people in. It would be great
to
have a "company" contact with people in tabs underneath. I hate having
to
have 5 different contacts for one company. This is one of my biggest
complaints with Outlook and the way my contacts are setup. I would see
this
as being the biggest improvement in a coming version. A reason to
actually
upgrade instead of just waiting until I need a new computer.
