Hello All

I have a system already set up to import emails fields from outlook to access and it actually works really well. but it is reliant upon access pulling the information and i need to be the one to do it.

i would like to turn it around. i would like to have a little outlook addin that i can give to a few people that need it to allow them to hit the button and it would export the appropriate email fields to the existing access database.

i found this code:

Sub ExportMailByFolder()
'Export specified fields from each mail
'item in selected folder.
Dim ns As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim objFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Set ns = GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = ns.PickFolder
Dim adoConn As ADODB.Connection
Dim adoRS As ADODB.Recordset
Dim intCounter As Integer
Set adoConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set adoRS = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
'DSN and target file must exist.
adoConn.Open "DSN=OutlookData;"
adoRS.Open "SELECT * FROM email",
adoConn, _ adOpenDynamic,
adLockOptimistic 'Cycle through selected folder.
For intCounter = objFolder.Items.Count To 1 Step -1
With objFolder.Items(intCounter)
'Copy property value to corresponding fields
'in target file.
If .Class = olMail Then adoRS.AddNew
adoRS("Subject") = .Subject
adoRS("Body") = .Body
adoRS("FromName") = .SenderName
adoRS("ToName") = .To
adoRS("FromAddress") = .SenderEmailAddress
adoRS("FromType") = .SenderEmailType
adoRS("CCName") = .CC
adoRS("BCCName") = .BCC
adoRS("Importance") = .Importance
adoRS("Sensitivity") = .Sensitivity
adoRS.Update
End If
End With
Next
adoRS.Close
Set adoRS = Nothing
Set adoConn = Nothing
Set ns = Nothing
Set objFolder = Nothing
End Sub

but i can tell at a quick glance that it isnt "inserting" by calling a database by the file name and the table name in that database. can any one let me know if that is possible and what code i need to get it to connect with the database.

any and all help appreciated
