Would it be possible to create a data entry similiar to a contact card, such as Outlook Contacts, and not necessary have them associated with a session? We have a number of people and business contacts and would love it if we could keep all their contact information within the application itself.
Hi,
I have entered a feature request. This is a good idea thank you
David Hervieux
Good idea for version 8 hey David :)

Has there been any progress on this? Our group would love it if it could be included in the next release.
This is something I would really like to add and its on the top of my todo list. However this will not be in the release 8.1 planned for March. The next major release will be more oriented on documents/contacts/tasks
David Hervieux
Do you have a timeframe of when this would be added?
This should be included in the version 9

Was a feature added to allow access to outlook contacts or import vCards?
Okay, found it: Page 83 of the User Manual
Having troubles getting RDM to get contacts from Outlook 2010

Do you get an error? Could you verify the application logs?

I get a few errors:
Unable to retrieve the email of <Email Contact Name>
Then:
Unable to connect to Outlook. You may have to open Outlook before to try again.
Outlook is Open, and I have granted permission to access the program (10 Mins) and when I retry, I get the same errors.
The application Log:
[2014-08-24 11:34:51 AM]ERROR SILENT System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I have set the program up on a Terminal Server (Win2012), and Iām logged in as a User. Does this require admin rights?
