MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / August 2007Is it possible to save a file inside of an Outlook contact or...
Is it possible to save a file inside of an Outlook contact or attach it to the contact in some way. Essentially I am trying to scan in documents received from various contacts convert them into .pdf and store them in one place connected in some way to their outlook contact folder. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. > Is it possible to save a file inside of an Outlook contact or attach it to > the contact in some way.

Yes, you can attach a file to any Outlook item except sticky notes. Use the Insert | File command or the paperclip icon.

I have many contacts that I have attached excel spreadsheets with personal calculations in OL07. I just today realized, that these ARE NOT UPDATED as the excel sheet is. If I open from the folder in my documents and edit the attachment, then save it back to my docs with the same name, when I open the contact and open the attachment from the notes, it is not updated. When I click properties, it shows that the attachment is in temporary internet files!! + C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\filename.... Is there a way to change this and have the files that are attached to contacts be the updated ones? I am astounded that this doesn't happen automatically!! > Please see my previous response in this thread. > > > Any chance that it is possible in Outlook 2003. |
