All Geniuses - Transferring Access to Outlook/Address Book

frattonchorus · 12-21-2006, 03:58 AM

Currently have a database (Access2003) which contains client information. Would very much like to be able to send group emails, and print mailing envelopes with the existing information. Is there a way of transferring data to Outlook?

Thankyou

Looks a bit complicated to me. Thankyou though. Maybe the old 'copy & paste' may have to be implimented.

You should be able to import from OL2k3.

File>Import and Export. In the wizard, choose 'Import from another file or program' and Next. MS Access is one of the choices > Next. Browse to your Access database.

Can't tell you how it ends from there, but it does work (haven't done it in years.)
