Outlook Contacts
The Outlook Contacts panel contains a list of all of your Contacts as follows:
■ Contacts originally created in Outlook
■ Outlook Contacts linked to an e-mail address in GoldMine
■ GoldMine Contacts imported to Outlook during synchronization.
Contacts created in Outlook can be linked to a GoldMine e-mail address, or used to create a new Contact record in GoldMine. All of the details of the Outlook Contact are used to create the new GoldMine Contact record, such as name, address, and contact information. Any changes made to the Contacts, whether in Outlook or GoldMine, are updated in both applications during synchronization.
