After upgrading from Win XP PRO SP2 to Vista Ultimate, cannot restore BCM
database. Error message says "Cannot restore this database because you were
not authorized to back up or restore databases when this one was originally
backed up. For more information, contact the database owner or the system
administrator for more information".

Drag and drop individual contacts, copied to a seperate file before upgrade,
does not work either. Error message says "Cannot copy the items. Business
Contact Manager for Outlook cannot save this Business Contact, as it has an
invalid value Assigned To User. Either set a valid value, or create a new
Business Contact record to store the information".

I have several hundred contacts and supporting information in this data
base. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Didn't mean to post this question here folks. Sorry about that. It's been a
long day...
