Hello friends,

I have a linked table in an Access 2000 DB that is linked
to an Outlook folder titled "Job Booking Calendar".

The table in Access only has some of the fields from the
calendar such "priority", "received", "created", etc. It
does not show the fields that relate to the actual date of
the appointment on the calendar in Outlook. So if a job is
booked (using Outlook) for a certain date and time, that
information does not show up in the table in Access.

The most important thing that I am trying to do here is to
be able to manipulate appointment dates in Outlook which
in turn will be reflected in Access.

May I ask can I do anything about this?

Big heartfelt thanks for the assistance so far.

Adam
 
The linked table method has major limitations, including the inability to
show even all the reasonably important fields. While articles have been
written on how to expand on this method's obvious features, I've never been
able to duplicate the results. See
http://www.slipstick.com/dev/database.htm#linkedtables .

That page will also give you other ideas on how to work with databases and
Outlook together. --
