Hi guys,

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, any mods feel free to move it to any relevant ones!

I'm creating a table which will take a users contact list and tasks from Outlook and place it into a table in Access. I followed this guide on the MS Office website:

office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/link-outlook-contacts-to-an-access-database-HA001116581.aspx
However, I'm having 2 major issues! One being that when I do this for tasks, it doesn't show me the "Status" of the task i.e. "In Progress", "Complete" etc. The other problem is that I have different sub-folders in my contacts list, and so I need to be able to add all these contacts in the sub-folders (and also any future ones I may add), and I cannot select just the "Contacts" folder as it just shows blank!

Hoping someone can help or direct me to a source that can!
