BCM 2007 Hanging
JSmom13 10/21/2008 4:01:01 PM
I installed Outlook 2007 with BCM recently and am using Windows XP with Excel
2002 and Word 2002 SP3. I am primarily using the BCM aspects of the software
and have not linked any email accounts to the Outlook. I have been entering
Business contacts with no problems for a month but the other day the program
froze. I can open the software, but if I try to do anything the system hangs
with a "Not Responding" and I have to use Task Manager to close it. I noticed
my SQL Server is 2005 - is that a possible reason? Are my other Office
components too old to work with the new Outlook? I have reintsalled Oulook
2007 w/BCM and looked for new updates with no effect.

Also, what files do I need to copy to retain my database as it freezes when
I try to create a back up.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hanging seems to be a very common problem with BCM 2007. It happens to me
everytime i try to do anything in BCM. I have not found anything to fix this
so far. I'm running Vista Ultimate with Office 2007 installed with all
updates applied.

I'm having the same problem running Office 2007 with Outlook BCM and Windows
XP Pro. I get hang ups all the time. Most seem to occur switching from
Contacts to Tasks. Very frustrating!
