Jason,
If you are going the SQL Server 7 route, use the built in DTS. It ought to
import most of what you need. As for MSDE / Access, you will need to write
your own (Delphi) app to import. To import from, Access / dBase, is not too
difficult - just use the existing BDE drivers, or use ADO. Don't know about
outlook...
Regards,
Dennis.
