[AccessD] Outlook MSG files

 And don't forget, you can create a linked table to an Outlook folder; no
need for code even to read the contents of every message.

Forget it.   Import them into an Outlook folder and manipulate them from

The problem is that MS in their wisdom decided to take a plain text
transmission and save it 
with a lot of binary information.

Take a look at one of those plain text  message files in a Hex editor :-(
