RE: Access; For Anthony Malone's attention

Hi Rakhee, thanks for your query. It is indeed possible to connect Outlook to Access - Outlook itself is just a database and has a "Get External Data" option within it. Have a look at the forum link below, there is a walkthrough of how to achieve it:

Hope this helps,

Access tip:

Deleting duplicate records from a table

You cannot delete records tables where there duplicate records. A way around this is to create a new table which wont hold the duplicates. and then deleting the old table.

1. Use a make-table query based on this table only. IMPORTANT - Ensure that you include all of the fields from your original table or you may loose data.

2. Open the query's property sheet by using VIEW, QUERY, PROPERTIES, and set the Unique Values property to Yes

3. Because you have selected the Unique Values to Yes when you run the query, Access creates a new table without duplicate records. You can now delete the old table and rename the new one.
