Connecting Business Contact Manager 2007 to SQL 2005 Standard

Asked by tm in Outlook Groupware Software, SQL Server 2005

Tags: contact, business, sql, database, server

I have downloaded the Database Admin Tool from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=b8e7aa0f-f593-4fb4-b822-dd662af1a6cb&displaylang=en
And created a database on an SQL server 2005 Standard.
The problem - how do I connect BMC 2007 to this database? In Database Tools - Create or Select a Database there is only the option to connect to a Compuater Name and not to a Database Server. When I enter the name of the machine on what the SQL server runs (as default instance) and try to connect I get a message "Cannot access database server on computer (name)... The help doesn't help too much...
N.B. I can access the SQL server from the particular machine Start Free Trial
