Default syncing Outlook business contacts

Just got my iPod Touch and it syncs my Outlook calendar and regular contacts beautifully, but none of the contacts in the Business Contact Manager. Any suggestions on how to sync them as well?
Thanks!

Oh, sorry the business contacts is really an addon to the Outlook which is seperate, and the iTunes summary panel will only sync the Outlook, or windows contacts and not business contacts.
Sorry

I actually bought this with the assurance from you about a week ago that I would be able to sync my business contacts. Since you seem to be very active on this forum, I wanted to let you know of the work-around that I figured out so you could advise others if the question is asked in the future. I have exported both my regular contacts and my business contacts to csv files, then imported that to the Windows Address Book. The iPod Touch (and, I assume, the iPhone) can sync with that.

Thanks for the work-a-round, so then you just forget about the robust Outlook ? Then your windows address book becomes your default on the computer. As you know you can only sync one thru the summary panel with either one only.
