How to manipulate Outlook data from MS Access

When the Calendar folder is used as a
linked table in MS Access, only some fields
are shown.

Is there a way to have them all?

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.outlookcode.com/d/database.htm#linkedtables .

That page will also give you other ideas on how to work with databases and Outlook together. You'll need to write code or use a third-party tool that does the heavy lifting.

Thanks a lot. I found enough there to keep
me exploring for a while.
