Link Yahoo IM to Access

[Jason McAdams]

Is there any known way to link Yahoo IM to MS Access in such a way that
Access could report if a username is online or not? I currently have a
field 'Member ID' which contains the Screen Names of a list of Yahoo IM
users. I'd like another field to display whether that user is online or
offline at any given moment. Is this possible or no?

Hi Jason, there are programs that do what you need, however i don't really
know if you can link to them from access.

There's a link to the site where you can download the program

Hope it helps you.
