BCM 2003 and BCM 2007 Compatibilty

K

I'm trying to connect from a laptop running XP and Outlook 2003 with
BCM to a PC running Vista and Outlook 2007 with BCM. The PC has the
database on it, properly shared, and restored from an original BCM
2003 database.

When |Try to connec to the database I get a long error message
beginning "The database server on computer .... is inaccessible"

I have checked all of the firewall exceptions and all is OK and I've
connected between BCM 2003 and BCM2003 previously with no problems.

In the Business Contact Manager Tean blog I have found the following
statement. "We do not support sharing between different versions of
BCM, e.g. sharing won't work if having BCM 2003 on the server and BCM
2007 on the client. My situation is the reverse, 2007 on the server
and 2003 on the client but am I still left with upgrade to 2007 as the
only hope?

I have seen an update 4 for BCM 2003 but this only mentions BCM 2003
and Office accounting 2007.

Any help appreciated.
