Linking to Outlook messages

J

Is it possible to include a field in an Access table that
will hyperlink to a specific Outlook e-mail message?

I'm an attorney, and I like to keep a log of all my
communications with my opposing counsel. I keep a log of
all contacts in an Access table (part of my case database),
and I have fields for such things as date of the
communication, who contacted whom, the topics discussed,
etc. If the communication is a letter, I have a field that
consists of a hyperlink to a copy of the letter. For
e-mails, I would like to have a link that takes me directly
to a copy of the e-mail. I don't want to have to first
save a copy of the email as a text message; I just want to
be able to link directly to the message so that it's just
like opening up the message from within my inbox. Is this
possible? Thanks. --JJ
