    Importing from Outlook 2007

    I have a form that, when filled out online and submitted, is sent to me (in Outlook) with a Text Database Entry data string at the bottom. However, when I click on External Data, then select Outlook, and select the table I want the data entered into, I get "Object or class does not support the set of events" error.



    I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. How do I get Access to read the text database entry string and add the information to the table I need?

    Are you doing this with code or are you doing it by hand?

    If you're doing it with code have you added the MS outlook library to your references? I haven't used outlook forms to insert data into a database before so I'm not aware of all the functionality (maybe someone else is) I've only used MS access to parse calendar information or pull specific mail text from the body of an email but that is pretty simple you can just link the outlook structure as a table directly into access if you want, then parse a specific email for a specific string. Is that what you want to do?

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