Hi All,
I'm Using Office 2007
My problem is, I'm trying to manage email via access. If I create a table
linked to an outlook folder, it shows al relevant fields other than the
senders email address. (In the 'From' field it only shows the 'Display Name'
the sender has chosen when he set up the email account).
Strangely enough, if you export the outlook folder to access, the email
sender's email address is exported. But this means I have to export from
outlook, then append new records from the outlook-created database to a table
in my main database.
Life would be so much simpler, and ensure the DB was up to date if a linked
table would show the same data as an exported folder, or if I could run the
outlook 'Export to File' function from within Access.
Any Suggestions??
Andy
