Thanks I'm investigating these links along with Outlook's Object Model. I haven't done any Outlook contacts integration work before and the only VBA I've done in Outlook was in regards to messaging & emails. I generally hold all contact information in a database (where it should be ;o) My original idea was that Outlook must maintain a unique identifier for each contact that I could use as a primary key - contact ID - in my contacts table. I would then programmatically retrieve the textual contact information for the chosen contact ID from Outlook when needed. This could all be a very dumb idea but my good to bad idea percentages can take the hit ;o) -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of MartyConnelly Sent: Friday, May 18, 2007 1:24 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Access app using Outlook contacts How to programmatically import Outlook items from Access http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=290658 How to programmatically export Outlook items to Access http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=290792 More examples here http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=25 Linking tables directly doesn't allow access to all Outlook fields via Link Table Manager..
