Link Outlook AddressBook

[orna]

Hi
I tried other forms and got no help.
I want to give the users to choose an e-mail address from Outlook AddressBook.
This table can be linked only to the local Outlook, and when the user get the .mde the connection fails.
Is there another way to do it?
Or - how can i link this table dynamically?

TIA

Orna. I can see your post is a few years old (!), but did you get a solution to this problem?

I am experiencing the same problem: my DB is distributed to network users as an MDE file. The backend is on a server. The DB has a link to our Outlook 2003 contacts; this works fine on my machine, but does not work for any of the other networked users.

Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance.

Hi Spaniard
The Contacts library is a local .
You need to link a global library.
