I tried some other linked tables and got the same result. I guess we can conclude that you'll have to write code or use a third-party tool to perform the import, rather than rely on Outlook's wizard. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customimport.htm

It's an ODBC System DSN that is connected to a mySQL server datasource.

What kind of data is the Access table linked to?

In outlook's import wizard linked tables don't appear on the list of
available access tables, only imported tables.
I will not be updating the table using Access so importing it is not an
option.

If it's an Access table, it should be importable into contacts. What happens if you try it?

Instead of importing an access table to the contacts, I'd like to import an
Access table that is an ODBC link. Is this possible?
