This is a feature I use heavily and was always enabled in Outlook until Outlook 2007, where the default is now "off".
This would allow almost any Outlook form (Contacts, Appointments, Tasks, etc) to have other contacts linked to that item. This is a handy power-feature to really boost Outlooks functionality as a CRM solution.
When I first upgraded to 2007 I freaked because it was gone and I use it heavily to cross link clients to vendors to appointments and so on.
Luckily it's an easy fix to turn it back on in 2007.
To enable Contact Linking:
1. Click Tools and select Options.
2. Click the Contacts Options button.
3. Check the Show Contact Linking on all Forms checkbox.
4. Click OK to close the Contact Options dialog box.
5. Click OK to close the Options dialog box.
