Q: I installed Office 2007 but I don't see Business Contact Manager for
Outlook 2007?
Answer: Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007 is a seperate
installation. After Office installation is complete, you will need to
install Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007.

Q: How do I get Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007?
A: Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007 comes as part of Office
Professional and Office Small Business Suite. In retail box, it will be on
second CD. If you have downloaded Professional and Small Business from
Office trial download, it is a second download. Note that second CD or trial
download2 also include Office Account 2007 Express. We have heard some
complains about second download not including BCM. We are investigating the
issue.

Q: I have pre-RTM (Beta, Beta2, B2TR) version of Business Contact Manager
for Outlook 2007. Will it work with RTM version of Office?
A: No. You will need RTM version of Business Contact Manager for Ourlook
2007 with RTM version of Office. If you had Beta of Office and BCM installed
on you machine and just upgraded Office to RTM version, most likely you will
see an error in Outlook startup.

I can confirm the above issue. For the Professional Trial, I got both
downloads. The second download only includes the Accouting package,
not BCM.

I will try to redownload it over the weekend.
