Link MS Access to Outlook

[Guest]

Hi,
I have a question.
Can MS Access table link to MS Outlook/Outlook Express?

Suppose there are Tom and Sue persons:

Sue control the acc.mdb database file, The database has a few tables, one of
the tables is called "input", Sue made the form, the form has "input" table
data. and also Sue made one button to send the specific record to the Tom via
outlook, once Sue send out, the mail will have a link, which link can open
the document (NOT attached file). Once Tom receive the mail from Sue, Tom
will click the link to open the document, and also fill out one signature
inside the document, after filled it out, then the signature will
automatically be populated in the specific field of the "input" table in the
acc.mdb database file.

Can MS Access and Outlook do above situation?
The problem is,
once Tom receive the mail and fill out the signature, can the Tom's
signature automatically be populated back on the table in the acc.mdb file?

Please let me know, thanks a lot.

Presently, no. This can't be done. The only links are to the address books,
and those are local. If you have an Exchange server, you can link data from
public folders, but the scripts which do that won't run in the latest
Exchange Server versions.
