    Implementing Calender Functionality with Outlook

    A client I am working for wants a calender to interact with their database forms, I am thinking outlook would be the best bet, as a table and form to make my own in access would be overly complicated. Is there any way to embed a calender from outlook within an access form? Thanks.

    I don't believe linking excel will allow you to edit the worksheet. I am not sure how to display excel within a form without either linking to it using the link manager (like a table) or an OLE object. Another method would be the attachment field. I don't believe any of these allow edits of the excel worksheet. You could give them a try or someone else can chime in if they know.

    Calendars in Access forms are not easy. If I were tasked with this I might approach it by linking Access to Outlook and have Access manipulate the intrinsic Outlook calendar.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
