I'm working with a database, where a user complete a form and upon
submitting, a email notice is sent to several people. Those people are
hardcoded into the form. Is it possible before the user submits the
information, that can choose who to send the form to using their Outlook
contacts? Is there a way to link their contacts to the form and database, so
they can select who is going to received the information? Is there way so
they can select multiple contacts, if required?

It really depends on how you're sending the email. I use Outlook automation,
and when I send the email I use preview mode so that the email window open
for the user. The only fields filled in are the From, Subject and Body; the
To line is left blank (or is filled in with defaults). The user specifies
who to send the email to in the normal manner and then clicks Send.

Please don't multipost. In the event you feel you need to post this to more than one newsgroup (and that would be rare)
please crosspost, so that answers from other newsgroups would also appear here.
