hi, I am working on creating a table of address, there's already address in
outlook express, how can I import it into Access. Thanks.
 
From Outlook Express:
File > Export Address Book >Select Text File>Save File
From Access:
File > Get External Data > Import>Choose Text Files>Browse to Location and
Save
 
Hi Jeff,

I did what you told me, exported and imported, and found the named .mdb
file, however, when I tried to open it, it appeared to be a empty form. Do
you know what happend? and where goes my data? Thank you for reply.
 
Hey,

When you export the address book name the file c:\vivian.txt
Then open access and import the above file
regards
jeff
 
yes, I did exactly the same as you said, and got a database named as the
text file, but when I opened the database, there's no form in it. It's waired.
