I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post, but any help is appreciated. Our IT department does not use the Blackbaud Management Console for Raiser's Edge or the Researcher's Edge. Because of this, I can't merge my new Researcher's edge scored database with my old researcher's edge db and can't remote to TRE with propalms. The reason they say they can't do this is the following...
"Since ProPalms is running on eclassroom which has a MSDE 2000 database installed. This is where the problem lies since Researchers Edge installs 2005 express, which will upgrade the MSDE 2000. Our current version of Blackboard will not run on 2005 Express or server. I have mentioned to Blackbaud that they need to develop a version which does not install 2005, their reply was we are the only customer which has shown an interest in this."
I haven't been given the reason why we don't use the BMC, is that my next question to ask?
Does anyone else have a setup where they don't use the BMC?
