Is it possible to create a hyperlink that will be launched from MS Outlook, then will launch Access 97 SR-2, will load a form and the specific recordset? I have hyperlinks working, but they only launch the database. Is this possible?

 
timrob,
I don't know if this will work in 97, check the Command Function ([tt]/cmd[/tt] switch) in the help file.

If your hyperlink works like a shortcut you can pass a string to Access from the command line that you can have the database review and act on when it opens.

Hope this helps,
