How do I update outlook contacts from access database

[Irish-woman]

I have successfully linked outlook contacts to an access table, and changes
to the outlook file are reflected in the access table, but the vice-versa
does not work, even though the Office "Help" entry indicates it should work -
I quote:
"You can quickly copy or link to your Outlook contacts in an Access
database, enabling you to work with your Outlook contacts in an Access
database. Your Access data is kept up to date with changes to Outlook
contacts, and vice versa, if you choose to link contacts to Access."
Can someone help??
