A problem with BCM started to occur on my computer recently. When starting
outlook I received an error message “BCM for Outlook could not connect to the
shared database. Do you want to work offline?�
I tried to uninstall and repair BCM with Disk 2 but now it fails to install
and gives the following error message “Setup failed to install Business
Contact Manager for Outlook 2007. See C:\Documents and
settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\MBSetuptmpA3.log for more detail.�
I have worked through the help at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...128601033.aspx and appear to
have a problem with the SQL server

When Trying To Start Sql server (Mssmlbiz) Through Computer Management I get
the following error:
“Windows could not start the SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ) on Local Computer. For
more information, review the System Event Log. If this is non-Microsoft
service, contact the service vendor and refer to specific error code 3417.�
These are the last two entries of the event log:

Can anyone tell me how to restore BCM given the above? Thank you.

You should consider asking in microsoft.public.outlook.bcm where the BCM
experts hang out.
