Hey John,

It is pretty easy. But I see you went the step farther of showing Fred how to do it, which I neglected to do.

I'd like to think that in some way, I have helped that situation out a bit especially with respect to Outlook <bg>. As I seem to recall, I had more than a few articles on the subject in FoxTalk....

Yeah, you do need to do some detective work, true.

Outlook always seems to be the forgotten puppy in these things.

Hell, I know. But you were right in posting code and I shouldn't have been so glib. BTW, I have a simple app uploaded here called ROC which grabs Contacts and throws them into a table. Perhaps I should have pointed Fred in that direction.
