    Importing Outlook 2010 folders into Access

    Good day all;
    I have been trying to import Outlook (2010) floders into Access 2010. So far, I have only been able to import 1 folder at a time. I have also tried linking the access database to Outlook, not much luck there.
    What I was wanted to do was import the pst / ost file into access and then work from there.


    Does anyone know if this is possible or is there a way to import the Inbox and all sub-folders at one time.
    Thank all
    Chomp

    What is pst/ost?

    Why no luck linking to Outlook folders? I have done that.

    Thanks June7.
    I can link to the folders.. no problem. Couple of issues (I think). Each time it refreshes, the update will over write original. The issue, number of sub-folders. When trying to import, I am only able to select 1 folder at a time...
    I will take a look at the links you provided and see if these help
    Thanks again June7

    Sorry I forgot to mention. PST file is a local Outlook message folder. A OST file is from a Microsoft Exchange server
