I want to link my Outlook Address Book to access and use it as my customer's
table. Is it possible to have an ID field in this Outlook table so that
there can't be any duplicates and I can create a relationship to my Delivery
Table?
Hope someone can help me with this.

Hi Pauline,

As far as I know this isn't possible. Outlook contact objects do have
unique IDs, but these are well hidden and somewhere between horribly
difficult and totally impossible to use as a foreign key in Access.
