BCM (Outlook 2007) Installation Problems

[Vin D'Eletto]

Hello all,

We just opened up our new office and our technology consultant delivered and
installed our workstations yesterday. We have Office 2007 for Small Business
installed. They did not, however, provide us with any of the software cds. I
would like to install the Business Contact Manager asap so that we can get
the office rolling. I tried downloading Office 2007 Small Business from
microsoft.com, but I can't find the BCM software to install. Any ideas?

When System Builders buy OEM Office licenses now, they get media-less
packages. The reasoning being that they should already have the disks from
their pre-instalation kit. Since you ordered Small Business Edition, they
should have installed BCM for you. I would get on their case and have them
come and install the missing software. Also, with your hardware, you should
have received a DVD case for Office with the license in it. There should be
info in there on how to order the media.

In the meantime, you could try downloading the trial here:

BCM is usually a separate install (not sure about the trial), so you may be
able to get it installed that way without installing Pro.
