Is there a way to convert existing Access files to Outlook?
Thank You

No. Access is a relational database; Outlook is an EMail, scheduling,
and journaling application. They're peas and apples.

You can - with some fairly messy VBA code - export *data* from Access
tables into an Outlook Journal, or into the Calendar, or into EMail
messages - but in no sense can you "convert" a database into an
Outlook .pst file.

So I guess this means it does not work in the reverse? I would like to export
my Outlook contacts into my Access db. Or is this different, in reverse? Can
you help me?

thanks

Access will import OL data, though having never had to do it. See File/Get
External Data
Though you might want to export to Excell first, manipulate your data, then
import the result into Access
