Yes, it is possible for ACCESS to read OUTLOOK e-mails but the format has to be standardized since it is read sequentially. Refer to the OUTLOOK object model for the exact syntax.

Recordsets are stored in the computer's RAM, consequently it can only be read on one computer. You need to store this RS as a temporary table in the BE MDB in order to make it accessible for all users of your application. Alternatively (and to avoid the bloating of the BE) you could write a CSV...

We had the same problem with Win95 computers and finally we install the A2K runtime (that has LESS (!) bugs than the XP version) on these computers.

The missing part: ... is closed from A2K to A97.
