Office Accounting and BCM integration, items not refreshed

Posted by dnanton on 04/28/2009 - 01:06

I am currently using Office Accounting 2009, with Outlook Business Contact Manager 2007. I started using Office Accounting Express 2008 and even tried the Professional edition, but after downgrading back to the Express version, never was able to get the items refreshed in BCM.

I have migrated to MSOA09 hoping it would take care of the "connection" but haven't been able to get them updated.

Any suggestions?

Uninstall and then reinstall everything

I would back-up your Office Accounting data, and then uninstall OA, uninstall BCM, and then reinstall OA, and then reinstall BCM, and then restore your data. I know that doesn't sound like fun, but based on my experience with OA, I don't think there's a better way.

thanks for the answer on MSOA 2009 with BCM

Thanks for your answer, but now that I have decided to do all the reinstallation from my old computer to a new one, it doesn't allow me to finish the restore, because it says that it doesn't find the MSSmallBusiness.ldf and other databases, on the new installation I have not yet connected BCM with MSOA, and I am using a different drive (d: instead of c:).

 

What options do I have to migrate the information from the WinVista 2009 MSOA installation, to this Win7 MSOA 2009 installation?
