ADO or DAO (original naming from Microsoft) both are just as happy to push as they are to pull data from a DB.

Use AddNew methods to add a new record, and Update methods to update records.

hi's. I'm pretty new to this stuff and was looking for sumwhere to begin and get sum information, particularly on linking up forms to a database. The goal would be say.. have a custom built form in outlook linked up to an Access2000 Database. Thus when users enter information into the outlook form, it stores the data in tables in Access. Since these are custom forms the jet engine deal won't work i'm pretty sure, and i was wondering if Visual Basic and ADO would do this. I know ADO allows you to pull data from a database... but can either of these let you enter data into a database? If this is not the right way to be heading, what is? Any help would be appreciated.. thanks
