Outlook (Contact Information) and MS Access

Joy
Hi -

There is a file of students in Outlook (located in Contacts).
These students are also used in my MS Access 2002 program.

But we have to type everything (all the student information) in again into
Access. Is there any way to access the student information from the
Contacts in Outlook, so we don't have to type the same information in twice?

Thanks!

Joy,
Access can connect to everything in Outlook and treat it as if it was a
table. It's under File | Get Externa Data | Link Tables
