I need to store my Business Contact Data on my "D" drive and not onthe "C"
drive where it lands by default. Hoe do I do this? I have tried every way
imaginable but there is no way to point the program in that direction for
data storage. This is s real problem for me as my "C" drive is full and I
need to use the "D" drive for additional data storage. What is my fix here?

Themurf:

Download SQL Management Studio Express and it will allow you to Detach the
BCM db from its C:\ location and move it to somewhere else, then Reattach.

HTH,
