One thing can do is look in the Windows event log for messages from
Sql Server.

Hi Gordon,

Did you try these options:

1. Restart SQL
Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services. Find SQL Server
(MSSMLBIZ) right click and restart.

2. Reboot the machine and start Outlook+BCM

Thanks.

Hi Gordon

Can you go to C:\Program files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\LOG

and try opening the ERRORLOG file using notepad and let me know what it says
