Can't open old BCM database

[Christopher Bakos]

I just installed BCM and I am trying to use a previous database created by
BCM. I copied the old database to the Business Contact Manager folder where
the new BCM database resides, however, when I try to connect to it using BCM
Database Tool, it isn't listed on my computer. I also tried to rename the
new database and replace it with the old but no success.

I also checked the Permissions on the old database and my user name is
listed to have Full Control Permission.

Any ideas?

BCM v2 lists BCM databases attached to the sql instance.

BCM v3, in addition to the above, also lists databases in the folder.

So, if you have BCM v2, it won't show up until you attach it to the
instance.
