I'm trying to do something, which sounds pretty easy to do but for the life of me can't figure it out. I'm trying to create a field with an e-mail format but can't figure it out. Does anyone know how to do this? I don't care if it's done in the table, it can be done in the form for all I care just as long as it's an e-mail format so people can click on it and Outlook will open up.

Take a look at Microsoft Knowledge Base article 323202.

The e-mail field in your table will be a Hyperlink field, and it will have a format like the following...
mailto: someone@someserver.net

Hope that helps get you started.

TH,

Thanks. I got it, it was easy. I can't believe I couldn't figure that out. It's funny sometimes how we get caught up in doing some of the difficult tasks that users request that when we're asked to perform a basic task, we get brain freeze.
