I imported my data from sql to access then outlook 2003 contacts, then copied
to public folders, now I need these to update twice a daily automatic. How to
do that?
 
I cannot find info about OLEDB outlook search feature in sql has that maybe I
can use the transfer data to outlook from sql just fine,do you know anything
about that?
 
I don't know what you mean by "OLEDB outlook search feature in sql." There is nothing built into Outlook to transfer data to SQL Server automatically or vice versa. Did you look at the page I suggested?

this is when you go tools- dts-import, from data source dropdown you can
choose oledb outllook search, that's what i got it.

anyway, I can transfer my data to access database very easily, then transfer
to outlook also just fine, my problem is this should be automatically happens
at least once a day, I can set this transfer time okay until access database,
but how about after that, how outlook will get this data from access
automatically, that's my problem , that's why i have been searching like
crazy how to find the way the do these transfer from sql to outlook2003
 
As I said before, nothing is built into Office that can do such a transfer automatically out of the box. You'd have to write code to do that or use a tool to handle the task. The page I suggested has information on both methods.

Sue, you may not answer this, but can you please point me only one thing
under this link, I have been on this link for a while and can not figure out
what do use to solve my problem
 
You have to decide for yourself. You can write code to perform the transfer. You can purchase a tool to do synchronization. You can get a tool to do manual import/export (maybe scriptable through Windows scheduler?). No one but you can decide what will work best for your situation, given your resources.
