How to use a date field in Access as a reminder in Outlook Calendar

[terbolee]

I'm wondering if there's a way to use a date field in an Access table so that reminders could be generated in MS-Outlook Calendar. I'd appreciate any help you can throw my way. Thanks.

I don't really know MS Outlook very well but I suspect, if you added the Outlook library as a link in your VBA window there would be a way. You'd need to learn (or get help on) the Outlook library though I suspect.
There may well be other ways but this is where I'd look first if it were me.

There's a load of information on this on the MS site, when you have A2003 look into:
