Hi


if I want do get a result datas set that contains fields from two tables I can do a simple JOIN query with SQL.

Is it possible (probably not) to create Outlook Views that combine fields from different folders. E.g. Taskfields together with
Contact fields depending on certain field values.

If not, is is possible to fill a explorer window with y fully custom view? Where I fill the rows from my plugin??

I'm using Outlook 2007

You'd have to gather the data from one folder at a time and aggregate it
yourself. You'd need a form with something like a grid control, an Explorer
can't show items from more than one folder at a time in its grid control.
 
I was already fearing you would tell me that. Is there a way to display my own control instead of an Explorer View?

Only by using an overlay using a window created using Win32 API calls and
then overlaid over the existing grid window, called the SuperGrid.

For Outlook 2007 you could display an Explorer Custom Task Pane with a grid
in it, that's an alternative but only for Outlook 2007 (or 2010).
