I added a tab to the appointment form with a couple of
combo boxes to track billing. I can't find the fields to
export. Any way to do this?
 
Outlook doesn't support exporting custom fields. Quick and dirty method:

1. Put all the items from your form in one folder.
2. Use a table view to display all the data fields that you want to export
to Excel.
3. Choose Edit | Select All.
4. Choose Edit | Copy.
5. Paste to Excel.

Otherwise, you'd have to write custom code or use a third-party application.
See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm .
 
Thank you for your help...I already did that, but we want
to have access pull it into an existing table. Does your
book have code examples that show how to do that? I may
have to run out and buy it! I can't find anything on the
web that works.
 
The page I suggested has links to samples for exporting to Access. My book
covers basic ADO concepts and techniques but doesn't have a specific example
of an export to Access.
