My new boss has given me the task of creating 1 place for all of his mother's
contacts. Currently, the contacts are in a: Word document (not necessaily
in a good format), in an Access Database, & in her current "contact list" in
Outlook (either 2003 or 2000- pretty sure 2003.) Some of the "contacts" are
duplicated in the 3 programs, & I also need to enter new contacts. When this
task is complete, I will need to: Create a Mailing list for wedding
invitations & Christmas Card mailing lists so that I can create lables or
print directly onto envelopes, Birthday reminders (Calendar/Report), enable
her to contact her "contacts" via e mail & create a report of often called
phone #'s. The only place that e mail addresses ae located will be in
Outlook. What is my best plan of attack?
I consider myself to be extremely proficient in Word, moderatly proficient
in Access. & a "newbe" to Outlook. I am confident with Publisher & have
used it recently to do a mail merge from Access to print envelopes.
I would love for the "contacts" to be "linked" to one another so that Access
& Outook changes will affect one another. I surely do not want to keep the
Word document.
I will have another project similar to this - after this - BUT - this one
first!
Thanks to anyone who can help! I am confident someone can!
