did you convert the hotmail acct to a live mail acct? did you take outlook
online (File menu)? If you lok at the server status (connector toolbar in
the lower right) what does it say?

exactly what are you trying to do with access and where are you running into
trouble?

Hi
I am confused! I have downloaded the Outlook connecter and managed to
configure to get my homeil emails to show in outlook. At the bottom the
connecter says it is offline as does outlook on the right at the bottom.
When I open outlook it tells me it cannot log on. I click ok and it opens
with my emails present.
Ultimately I want to use outlook with access db (to create db with my
teaching hours and stuff) and Im having problems with that too.
I am using Vista Ultimate and Office 2007 Ultimate.
There is obviously more than one problem here but I dont know where to
start.
Can you help please?
Thanks
Ani
