I am trying to add a PST file in Outlook 2003; however, when I
get to the "Add Data File" dialog, all that is listed is Business
Contact Manager! If I try to add that, Outlook crashes. What is
causing this and how can it be fixed?

Where is this "add datafile" dialog? Are you trying to do this through
Control panel-Mail or some other way?

File, Data file management, Add?

Are you using BCM? If not, uninstall Business Contact manager from
add/remove programs.

Yes, through the mail icon. Business Contact Manager is the only choice. I
will try to delete this and add the .pst as suggested.

Are you sure your pst files was all right? if not, you can try a tool
called Advanced Outlook Repair. You can download a free demo version
at http://www.datanumen.com/aor/aor.exe . I think it is a useful
repair tool for you. It is easy to recover your PST file by using its
wizard. It is a powerful tool to recover messages, folders and other
objects from corrupt or damaged Microsoft Outlook PST files.

Detailed information about Advanced Outlook Repair can be found at
http://www.datanumen.com/aor/

If this were the only product on earth I would not use it because of your poor
manners. You are hurting your company, not helping it.
