User-defined Outlook fields in Access
Is there a way to have Access display user-created fields from Outlook?
I have added user-defined fields to Outlook 2007 to capture addtional contact information. I have also created an Access 2007 db linked to my contacts within Outlook (via Access's External Data Outlook Folder function) to allow me to do some additional processing based on my contacts. When I review the contacts table within Access I only see those Outlook fields created by Microsoft (and not the additonal fields I created). Is there a way to display the additional columns within my Access table? Thanks in advance! Harry |

User-defined Outlook fields in Access
Also, I'd like to add Outlook's three email fields (just noticed they weren't
included in the contact info displayed in Access). Any tips on how to include these too? TIA "Harry" wrote: Is there a way to have Access display user-created fields from Outlook?

User-defined Outlook fields in Access
Sorry, looks like I shouldn't have posted my first question so quickly as
I've run into another hurdle. Does Outlook assign a key field to the contact records? Is it possible to add that to the field list in Access? Wondering how I'm going to key the tables I'm adding in Access to the Outlook list... TIA (again!)
