Thanks very much to the BCM Team for the fixes in Service Pack 1, just released last night!!!

As the Team says on their blog, it's our constant screaming and ranting that fuels their priorities in what to fix and enhance. They said it a little differently, but the point is that your contribution and feedback does get results. Here's a hurrah to all the other community members trying to make BCM a better product!!!

Thanks,
Lon

Yes I agree with you, but the problem is that I cant install this uppgrade on
a Swedish version of BCM office 2007. It stops in the middle of installation
and says, cant write to mapisvc.inf. Wrong 1913.
Any ideas from someone what the pronblem can be?

This issue has also been a problem for some Vista users with the BCM
v3 setup, not just SP1.

I think the problem is the permission on a folder or file.

Search this newsgroup for "mapisvc.inf" and you should find the fix--
what permission to change, and then the upgrade should work.
 
I have a new computer with Office 2007 Student on it. Is there a trial for
just the BCM module? I want to see how it works in relation to Act 2007
before I buy it.
 
Absolutely! You can customize the Opportunity record with 40 extra fields
and customize the views of the Opps much better than ACT can display them.

HTH,
Lon

BEWARE....if you have been using ACT for a long time and you have a lot of
history notes when you convert the data to BCM it does not carry over the
date of the note (timestamp). It changes all the dates to the current date
of the import. I was hoping SP1 fixed this issue but it did not. All that
data is worthless if a salesperson can't go back and see on what date he had
a certain conversation with a customer or on what date he last visited a
customer.
