VB equivalent for import command

In Access via "Menu->File->Get external data' I can import an Outlook
folder. I can't find the VB equivalent for doing the same. Anyone an idea?
thanks,
john

Thanks. I did some further checking on ng'ss but this doesn't seem possible
with Outlook folders. Anyway I found another solution: directly linking the
table to Outlook which works well. I can even delete mails in Outlook from
within Access!

That's good to know. You can also open Outlook through Automation and
manipulate its contents that way. That would also allow you to apply Outlook
functions to the data.
