Hello,
I upgraded my laptop from Windows 7 64 bit Office 2012/BCM 32 bit to Windows 8 Office 2013/BCM.
before the upgrade I detached the bcm database in SSMS. made copies of the mdf and ldf files.
upgraded to Win 8 and Office 2013. installed BCM 2013
started SSMS. tried to attach the BCM database in SSMS. I get the following error message with error message details following:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------
Cannot show requested dialog.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Parameter name: nColIndex Actual value was -1. (Microsoft.SqlServer.GridControl)
------------------------------

I created a local account with administrative rights on the laptop. logged in with the local account. tried to attach the BCM database. same error.
