When I try import data from an Outlook email folder the data does not reflect in the table. I do so see the data during the import exchange/outlook wizard steps and am able to specify field information etc.

I seem to have resolved it by simply opening the email folder I want to import data from via 'File' 'Open' 'Browse' then selecting 'Outlook' in the file type - this brings up the Import Exchange/Outlook Wizard, and when I select the folder the data imports!

Thank you for your input!

    And the table into which you are trying to import? Since we have no visibility to your desktop and can't observe the process, all we have to go on is the details you are able to provide. Things like screenshots, table design, sample data and so on really go a long way towards getting useful suggestions.

    I am using Outlook 365. I import via the import exchange/outlook wizard.

    I do not get any error message, the data is simply not there.

    What error messages are raised? How are you trying to import the data? Is the table set up to mirror the fields in the import properly? Any other details you can provide?

    Thanks.
