Installing Outlook 2007 BCM on Vista Business?

Hi y'all...
I've just installed Outlook 2007 on my Vista Business today, and when I'm
about to install BCM 2007 on it; I recognized the setup was saying that it'll
also install SQL Server Express Edition along with it.
As I know, SQL Server Express Edition is not yet fully supported by Windows
Vista (any editions); unless we install the SQL Server Express Edition SP2
then it'll be compatible.
So I understand the BCM 2007 will only install SQL Server Express Edition
SP1 not the SP2, is this correct? Since the installation CDs is stamped:
January 2007.
What should I do? Should I install the BCM 2007 anyways and update it? Or
should I install first the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2?
Hope someone could help me out here, thanks!

BCM doesn't use any of the features of SQL Server 2005 that lead Vista
to issue that warning, so its not really an issue.

Also, the next time you run Windows Update, after installing BCM, SQL
will get updated.

Hi Luther,

Have you use BCM 2007 on Vista too?
I see there are lots of problems from people who uses BCM 2007 in this
forum, it's bother me too.
