    vbA

    i have created a database with help of other to log my clubs sports score by player etc. what I want to do is to create and email form that I can email out so other club captains can send me their scores and info to add to my database.

    I do not want to use excel, I just want to know if this is possible using out look to send the email.




    1. There are multiple tables that will need updating. Via the email form.

    Investigate the Collect Data functionality in Access. Be warned, this is removed from Access 2013. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ac...15427.aspx#BM3
    However, I think can only update a single table with this operation.

    Otherwise, VBA can extract data from body of emails but the code would be complex and requires the email to be a consistent structure.
