Hi Guys I need some help.I posted this in another forum and received no replies, so thought I would try this one.
I want to update Contact information in Microsoft Outlook 2002 from an Access Contact table that I have. I was originally thinking of writing code to export the relevant data to a CSV file and then import into Outlook that way. I then came across the Linked table facility. I have a linked table to Outlooks Contacts. My idea being that I would be able to insert into this Linked Table when new contacts are created within Access or update when a record is modified.
But when I try entering data manually I get the following eror "You do not have the necessary permissions to use this object. Have you system administrator or the person who created the object establish the appropriate permissions for you."
I was assuming that data could be modified/added within Access and these changes then reflceted within Outlook.It is possible to change some data in access that was created in Outlook but not all.
Am I wrong in my assumption or am I not seeing the wood for the trees.
Any help or alternative solution would be appreciated.
