BCM for Outlook 2007... WHERE IS IT ?!!

Guest

I have downloaded Office 2007 from MSDN and installed Outlook 2007.

The main and only reason I even did this is because I need to develop
somthing for BCM 2007.

Now my very simple question is, where is it, how do I get it? The BCM that is.

On the MSDN site it says, when selecting Office 2007, that it includes
"Outlook 2007 with BCM".
How MS can pack an entire Office installation along with BCM (which is
normally around 180 MB alone) into an 400+ MB ISO did puzzle me a bit, but I
thought "if they say it's there then I guess it must be".

Well I can't find it anywhere on that CD (ISO). If I use the help from
within Outlook 2007 and read up on "How to install BCM for Outlook 2007" it
says somthing about using CD 2... What CD 2 ? There is only one.

It was a separate download for the public beta. I don't know if MSDN is any
different as I am not a subscriber.

I am a subscriber and the download says nothing about it being a beta but
regardless wether it's a beta or not, there is only 1 CD.

There is an entire section under MSDN downloads called "Business Contact
Manager" though, but that doesn't include BCM for Outlook 2007, only for 2003.

I am about to open a support ticket with MS regarding this. I will let
you know what I find out.

MS says they are aware of the problem but they do not have a resolution
at this point. The support guy is suppose to call me back when they
have a fix. I let you know what I find out.

That's great Jerry, I'll await their response...

One would think adding a link to the darn thing somwhere shouldn't be too
hard :)

MS support called me back. They said it should be available Monday. He
was not sure if it would be a separate package or if you would have to
download office pro again.

That sounds great Jerry !

Incase they contact you in some way letting you know where they decide to
place it, please post it here would you? :)

Did this ever show up? I loaded 2007 from a CD set I received and no BCM. I
looked and looked at the MS website and no download for it anywhere. I am
curious if Microsoft resolved the issue yet.

Thanks.

Well I was hoping that somone would have gotten back to Jerry with some
instructions, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

And please put down your coffee cup before I tell you that aparently the fix
for this monday nov. 21st, 2006 was to simply edit the package description of
the Office 2007 ISO, so that Outlook isn't even mentioned anymore (with or
without BCM).

This is (acording to the description) an Office 2007 package without Outlook
hehe :)

There you have it, problem solved, well done...

I still have an open ticket with MS support. apparently even MS can't
get there hands on it.

It was suppose to be posted by yesterday but that did not happen. As
soon as I get any news I will post here.

Hmmm... Ok, I normally don't like to accuse anyone of somthing unless I'm
certain, but it appears to me that somone found this thread offending (or
maybe rather embassing?) and disabled any possible search result for this
thread in the forum.

If this is the case I think it's a somwhat lame way to solve a problem by
hiding it instead of just coming forth and giving some info on the matter,
pfft...

OK MS said it should be available today on MSDN. All I see is the
enterprise version of office 2007. I am downloading now and will let
you know if it is part of this package.

I don't think the bits are available to MSDN subscribers yet. I certainly
don't have them.

Sorry for the confusion.
