BCM database and Windows 7

[Ashish Mathur]

Hi,

I had BCM 2007 running on a Vista machine with Office 2007. I installed
Windows 7 on my machine and then installed Office 2007 with BCM 2007.

I restored my BCM database by running Outlook as an Administrator and it all
restored just fine. Now when i try to add/edit any account or contact, i get
a message saying that

The identifier for Business Contact manager databse has just been changed.
Another user may have restored the database. Restart Outlook to connect to
this database with the new identifier.

I have resartd outlook several times but to no avail.

Please help.

Do you only get this behavior in Win 7 or can you replicate it on
another OS as well?

I will test your scenario.

Have you tried perhaps re-connecting the BCM database.

File -> Manage Data Files
Remove BCM from that
Restart Outlook
File -> Manage Data Files
Reconnect BCM
