I was asked to restore a laptop with BCM installation. All I got was the mdf
and ldf files saved. I installed SQL Server 2005 on a new server and attached
the mdf file. However, using the BCM Database Tool 2007, it can't see this
recovered database, so I can't share it. I can create and share a blank
database however. Is there some crazy permission issue here that I missed?
Thanks, I can see over 5000 contacts in the database, so the data is there.

BCM only works with a sql instance called MSMSLBIZ that's configured
to use port number 5356. BCM Setup creates that instance.
 
Nope, already have correct instance name and re-attached the database, so
that's not it.
