Heres the low down:
-Office Professional PLus 2007 Installed on Windows XP SP2
-Downloaded BCM 2007 from eOpen site as listed under the Office Small
Business 2007 package
-Attemtped install on clean fresh istall machine and I'm getting the "Setup
failed to install the required component Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express
(MSSMLBIZ). Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007 cannot continue. See
C:\Program Files|Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\Summary.txt for
more detail."

The log file tells me nothing what so ever. I've tried installing SQL
Express seperately and did so with no trouble.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I would contact Microsoft support.
 
Well I solved my own issue and here it is.
When you install BCM you need to install SQL as well, but you need to
changed the defualt instance. Download and install SQL Express alone and
un-hide the advanced options. Change the default instance from whatever SQL
set it as to the instance listed in (MSSMLBIZ) after the error. Then once
that is all set run the BCM setup again and you should be golden.
