Thanks Ken, it's something in my connection string. I am opening a recordset
but it has a 0 count. I see that the query and table in access have record
locks and I am not getting any errors in VBA. Outlook can pull data from
access so I can eliminate that a possable cause.

You can't use bound controls in an Outlook form, but accessing a recordset
using SQL and ADO and putting the data into a control works just fine. I've
used grid controls many time as well as combo and list boxes. Get the
recordset and iterate it, putting the data into the appropriate rows of the
combo.

Has anyone every accessed a MS Access Database using a combobox in an
outlook
form? I am looking to have a combobox display a list of records that are
in a
access databse on another server. A standard ADO recordset in the object
does
not seem to work.
