You must have missed SQLView, among others.

Hi Sue,

Thank you for your link. When I looked, I saw tools for using an Outlook
Contact List as a database table, but I didn't see a tool for using a
database table as an Outlook Contact List. Did I overlook something?

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/database.htm#tools for some tools that
might help you with this.

We have an existing database which we maintain daily. It contains email
addresses. Is there a simple way for Outlook to use it as an address
book?
I don't like import/export because then you either have two copies to
maintain or you have a labor intensive, error prone job to be performed on
a
merciless schedule.

thanks for your advice.
