Linked Table Problem

S

Sirmenace

I created a database and linked it to my Outlook. I want to be able to
append specific records and it is my understanding that I must have a primary
key, however, when I try to use the Link Tables button, I don't have the
option to set a primary key. I either need to be able to set a primary key,
or I need to learn how to append specific records to another table a
different way. Any thoughts?

link to your Outlook inbox. Then query the table exactly the way you
would a native Access table. then append the records anywhere you
want. NEED a primary key? No. All you need is specific enough
criteria to identify the records you want.
