Installation Error

[Guest]

When trying to install BCM 2007, I receive the following error message:

"Setup failed to install the required component Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Express (MSSMLBIZ). Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007 cannot
continue. See C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup
Bootstrap\LOG\Summary.txt for more detail."

When I look in the file this is part of what I find:

I forgot to mention that I'm running Vista Business.

Make sure you use "run as administrator" when installing BCM 2007 on Vista
machine.

Thanks! I'll give it a try.

By the way, these two items are not consistent:

OS Version : Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
and

I forgot to mention that I'm running Vista Business.

In any case, since the problem appears to be about installing Sql
Server Express, I recommend downloading the Sql Server Express
directly from Microsoft and installing that first, and then once it's
been installed properly, rerunning the BCM Setup. The standalone Sql
Server Express package is likely to have produce diagnostics when it
runs into problems.
