Using different language version of BCM PierreDa 3/23/2007 9:29:10 PM Hi, In the begining (before I try to install on SQL server 2005) I installed Outlook 2007 and BCM 2007 on my server. Success ! I connect with my computer Outlook/BCM 2007 **UK** with no problem ! Thinking I finally find the solution to have a CRM I install BCM 2007 **FR** on an other computer. Problems begins ! No way to connect to the same server "cannot find any BCM databases on computer SERVERNAME " ... But I'm connected with the other computer **UK** on the DB !! French computer has the same config (firewall is configured and we can connect to our server, SQL Server 2005, ... without any problem !!!). So ... I guess that all client must use same localizasion as the installed "BCM server" ... ? Any help will be appreciate If I can re-install BCM ... (see other topics !!) THANKS !

Re: Using different language version of BCM Pierre D. 3/24/2007 9:01:11 AM Hi, Thanks for your answer. Strange ! That point isn't mention anywhere !!! Why this issue as we can do that with other MS software ? (Windows, SQL Server, Outlook, Exchange server, ...). Can you explain ? Also, it will be nice during install to have the possibility to create the BCM DB on a SQL Server 2005 if installed !!

Re: Using different language version of BCM "Mukesh Agarwal [MSFT]" <mukeshag[ at ]online.microsoft.com> 3/29/2007 1:59:05 AM To answer your first question, there is a long technical answer. In summary, the database schema for English version of BCM is different than French version of BCM. So they are not compatible. We are releasing a tool to create BCM db on installed SQL server.

Re: Using different language version of BCM Pierre D. 5/7/2007 2:37:01 PM Hi, That will be great for the tool !!! Will help many people ! For my side I succeed to made BCM working with SQL2005 and client (UK :-) ) can connect. It was a bit hard ... A good think will be to change the installation procedure and have the possibility to choose to create and connect to SQL2005 ! Theres is also an issue (or more) when installing on a longhorn server (see my other post). A file named "mapisvc.inf" can't be accessed.

Re: Using different language version of BCM Claus 6/13/2007 9:04:00 PM Hi, good to read that, I wanted to install BCM in our French Office in a couple of days... Now, it seems to me that we have to agree company wide to a single language version of BCM. Should be English then. My problem: We have BCM (German) up and running on an SBS 2003 (German) and some clients (German). Three questions: 1. Can I mix SBS (German) with BCM (English)? 2. Can I mix Windows XP / Vista (German) + Office (German) with BCM (English)? 3. Is there any way to migrate the existing database from German to English? Thank you, best regards, Claus "Mukesh Agarwal [MSFT]" wrote: [Quoted Text] > To answer your first question, there is a long technical answer.
