    Hi,
    I have linked my Business Contact to an Account. The Account record holds the company name and address details. When I link the Business Contact from the Address record, the Company and Address fields are NOT automatically populated from the Account, as I would have expected. This means that when running a Marketing Campaign/Mail Merge for the Business Contact, there is no address or company name shown.
    How am I meant to add the company name and address detail to the Business Contact?

    Thanks

    Lozzaw, I also expected an option to populate the contact with address information. I'm not sure of what you mean by "link the Business Contact from the Address record".

    What I do from inside the contact record is use the 'Account' button just below contact name to create the link and then double click on the company name from within the contact record - up comes the account and I then copy and paste the address into the address box and check formatting by clicking the button to the left.
