Is anyone using a existing SQL database as the backend database. We have an
existing application that utilizes a SQL database, and I was wondering if
anyone has configured their BCM application to point to an existing database,
instead of creating a new database.

There have been many discussions on that subject, and it is now
supported in BCM 2007. Search this newsgroup for the nitty-gritty.
 
You can use an existing "Instance" of SQL2005 to host your BCM db. We are
doing that now. However, I doubt that you can use an existing db. BCM needs a
whole set of predefined interlinked tables in it's db that would not be
present in the db used by your existing app. the BCM db tool creates the
virgin BCM db with all the needed tables and scripts.
