Outlook/Access

[Guest]

I'm trying to use Outlook's contact list to populate my employee database
table in Access. I was wondering if there was any way to link my Employee
table with Outlooks contracts similar to what I have done with Excel. Most
of my employee's information are contacted on my Outlook contact cards and
instead of duplicating this infomation I would like to link to it. This way
when ever a new employee comes into my deparment all I have to do is have
them fill out a OUtlook contact and then it would automatically be enter into
my employee database, instead of having to do it twice. If I can't link
Access to Outlook can I make Outlook use my database for my its contact
information.

Are you trying to do this with standard outlook contacts or BCM contacts?

With BCM v3 you can link Access to PublicContactsView in the BCM
database.

With regular Outlook Contacts you can try your question in
microsoft.public.outlook.

Then you probably want to post this question in the general outlook form.
