Linking Access To Outlook Calender

[T. Phillips]

I cannot find a way to link MS Access to my Outlook Calender. I would Like to Populate my Outlook Calender from inside MS Access. Simple stuff, just an appointment description and date/time. When I try to link only 20 fields are linked and none of them are correct, or at least decypherable. There are Basic fields that appear to be email fields, "from, senders name, to, received, has attachments, date created, etc. but no fields for appointment time/date. The data is Live, but I cannot see all fields. Any help would be appreciated. thx

The linked table method has major limitations, including the inability to
show even all the reasonably important fields. While articles have been
written on how to expand on this method's obvious features, I've never been
able to duplicate the results. See
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/database.htm#linkedtables .

That page will also give you other ideas on how to work with databases and
Outlook together. You'll have to write code or use a tool someone else
wrote.
