urgent help- creating folders

[sharan]

Hi,

I am very new to outlook.Would like to know if the
followwing is possible.

This is for a law firm.They need to organise information
as follows:

1)They have some practice areas like Bankruptcy,civil
action,criminal
etc.They want to create folders for these areas.

2)They want a screen to input a client name and practice
area and this
should be automatically assigned to the appropriate folder
along with a
number which they enter for first time,henceforth it shoud
increment on its
own.

eg: FIRST TIME:
client name: john summers
practice area: criminal

bankruptcy
civil action
criminal
-----03bk001 John summers

SECOND TIME:
client name: mike doe
practice area: criminal

bankruptcy
civil action
criminal
-----03bk001 John summers
-----03bk002 Mike Doe


So, Can I add folders to the existing folders(practice
area) by entering
some values through screen(like client name and practice
area).

I would like to create a custom form.I tried using vba's
userform but coud not publish it.



Thanks.
Sharan.

Hello Sharan,
Why do you want to use Outlook to do this? What you are doing seems to
be more data related than Mail related. MS Access would do this with
no sweat.

Try posting your question to

Comp.databases.ms-access

Tell the group you are new to Access and you'll get a bunch of help.
