I know nothing about BCM and had this dumped on me. It was working fine for
a month, then one day all the users that had access to it (5 or so) reported
Outlook 2003 was running very slow, I determined that the BCM database was
no longer accessable for some reason. Removed the BCM data file and Outlook
ran fine again, went though the add data file wizard and it can no longer
find the BCM database.
Machine is running Standard Server 2003 SP1, all current updates, is a
member of a domain, SQL version 5 I think (not too knowledgeable on this
either, I'm a hardware person).
Any ideas on where to look would be greatly appreciated!

Dave, is the problem is not yet resolved, please followup here.

Was the DB hosted on your machine? Have you tried restoring backups?
