Hi there,

We run a small office with 5 pc's all running office professional 2007 and
small business server 2003 for our files. Recently we installed BCM and
uninstalled ACT. 2 of the computers work fine and the other 2 keep on coming
up with the error message when trying to configure BCM

"Business Contact Manager for Outlook encountered a critical error during
startup and will be removed from this profile. If you would like to use
Business Contact Manager for Outlook, please restart Outlook and try again."

I have searched for the solution but to date have spent countless hours and
am very frustrated with Microsoft BCM

Please help if possible...

Txs

My list of likely suspects:
1) Something's wrong with the CLR (.NET 2.0). Try uninstalling .NET
and reinstalling it from the BCM disk.
2) Outlook and BCM versions are not the same. Perhaps Windows Update
upgraded Outlook to SP1?
