Determine the "identity" of your emails. Set with SAM the sender and the folder folder for sent items with the help of rules. |
This sample reads the fields 'Fullname' and 'EMailAddress' from the table 'Customers' of your Access database, and it creates for every found recordset a new contact in Outlook.
In the procedure 'ConnectDB' change the values for the variables 'File' (file name of your Access database), 'Fields' (list of field names to be read), and 'Table' (name of the database table). Repeat the field names in the procedure 'AddContactsFromAccess' as shown, and assign the values to the appropriate ContactItem properties.
You also need to add a reference to a 'Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects x Library' via Tools/References. If there's more than one library of that type, choose the most current one. For an Access 2007 database (*.accdb file) or higher you need version 6.0 at least.
