Outlook / Access

[Snoopy Dawg]

I have linked my Outlook contacts in Access. All of the Outlook fields
do not appear...specifically the email field. How do I get it to
appear in the resulting Access "table".

Thanks

You don't. 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.
