I want to set up an automated mailing process in A2K for someone using Oulook 2K. Simple enough, I thought, I know you can link to Outlook folders so, I will just link to his Contacts, then iterate through them and pick the email addresses. Linked to Contacts and went looking - lo and behold - no email address fields in the linked Contacts :-( I know I could use use Docmd.SendObject,,,,"Display Name (E-mail)".......... but I don't want to send the messages through Outlook/Exchange. For various reasons, I want to grab the email address and BLAT the message out. If I export Contacts to an Access database, the fields I want are in the exported table, but when I link to Contacts they are not :-( Anyone know how I can get the email address(es) from the Outlook Contacts folder live (ie by linking, not exporting/importing)? -- Stuart McLachlan Lexacorp Ltd Application Development, IT Consultancy http://www.lexacorp.com.pg
