How to inmport old BCM files

J

Joe

I have a hard drive that won't boot anymore, but I can get to all my files.
I never backed up 2003 Business Contact Manager, so there does not appear to
be any .bcm files I can import. Is there something I can do with the .mdf
and .ldf files in the microsoft/bcm directory?

Yes, install BCM on a new HD, run 1st use, shutdown Outlook, overwrite
the new .mdf to the new drive with the old file. You can throw away the
..ldf file as SQL will generate a new one.

Your mileage may vary.
