Hi,
I'm a little baffled; perhaps someone here can help. MBSA 2.0 complains as
below.
The problem is the only contents of the SQL Server 2005 folder in Programs
is Configuration Tools. I've tried re-installing SQL Server Express to see
if it would install the proper tools to make the changes as described in the
help but no joy. The problem is with the instance installed by Business
Contact Manager.

This system is Win XP SP2; Outlook 2003 with Business Contact Manager (and
the latest updates); Visual Studio Express Edition 2005 with Visual Web
Developer

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Rob

Result:
SQL Server and/or MSDE authentication mode is set to SQL Server and/or MSDE
and Windows (Mixed Mode).

How to correct this:

SQL Server Authentication ModeIssue
In Mixed Mode, user name and password information is stored in Microsoft®
SQL Serverâ„¢. Mixed Mode is only intended for use in networks in which the
servers, clients, and network infrastructure are physically protected, and
all users are trusted. It is included in SQL Server 7.0 to provide backward
compatibility with previous releases and to allow interoperability with
products that do not support Windows NT® authentication.

In contrast, Windows NT Authentication Mode uses the typical Windows NT
authentication mechanism, which was built for use in environments where
security is important. All authentication information is housed on the domain
controller rather than SQL Server, and it is protected because the
information is encrypted.

Solution
Change SQL Server on your system that uses Mixed Mode to Windows
Authentication Mode, if possible.

Instructions
To change SQL Server from Mixed Mode to Windows Authentication Mode

Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server, and then
click Enterprise Manager.
Double-click Microsoft SQL Servers and SQL Server Group, right-click the
server that you want to secure, and then click Properties.
In the SQL Server Properties dialog box, click the Security tab.
Under Authentication, click Windows only.
