Hi,
i need to develop a program in visual basic 6.x that syncronizes outlook
data (appointment, to do, memo, contact) with access database.
Any clue ?
Some good link, tutorial, article, snippet ?

Adriano, I´d add an user defined field to each Outlook item with my own GUID
as the unique id. This value can also be the primary key for your access
database.

The easiest now would be if you can determine by the LastModification time
which record is the newest. Therefor you must ensure that all participants
are using the same time.

If the system is used by one computer only that´s clear. If there´re more
than one then you need to syncronize the time. As the access db is no dbms,
but a simple file only, you can´t use any times created by access.
