Yes, try restarting your computer, then right-click on "My Computer" and
select "Manage", expand the "Services and Applications" folder and click on
"Services". If you have Outlook & BCM 2007, look for SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ).
If you have Outlook & BCM 2003, look for MSSQL$MICROSOFTSMLBIZ. Check the
status to ensure that it is running.
Also, you can check the event log for errors by clicking "Start | Run" then
type eventvwr and click "OK". Check the Application & System logs for
errors around the time that you could not access the database.
