Integrating 2007 outlook/bcm with accounting 2008

[Tamara]

I cannot get the accounting wizard to integrate with my BCM, when I try the
database drop down is empty and then tells me that I cannot use the wizard.
I have outlook/bcm 2007 with accounting 2008. I am not on a network, just
one computer, the only administrator/owner. Please help.

If you cannot see the BCM database, try a back-up and restore of the BCM
database.

Hope this helps....

Tried that....didn't work

Most likely, it is not showing up because a previous integration was
done/attempted using that same BCM database file.

Try this...(backup your existing database before making any changes)
Export the BCM data as a .bcm file. Export Everything
Create a new BCM database, and import the exported .bcm data file into the
new database.
Change the data file in Account Settings to the new database.

I was having the same problem. This fixed it. Thank you. I also found out
that the contacts in BCM don't show up in Accounting 2008 until you also put
them into the Accounts folder. Then in Accounting, they don't show up until
you go to the upper right corner in contacts and change it to view all. Hope
that helps someone.
