Microsoft Access does not have 'auditing' capabilities out of the box.
You can programmatically move stuff to an audit table. There is a small
sample database at
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/download3.asp?SampleName=AuditTrail2.
mdb, which was developed by a Microsoft Access MVP which may point you
in the right direction.
It is possible for Access to talk to Outlook to do a variety of things,
but I have never delved into this side of things.
The absolute best place to ask questions about Microsoft Access is the
Access-L listserve at
http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/scripts/wa.exe?A0=access-l. There is nothing
that the very helpful and friendly people there do not know. The list
archives is a very good source of information too. The
http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/ site also has a lot of useful
information.

Dear Listserv,
I have a couple questions regarding Access Databases:
1. Does Access have any auditing capabilities?
2. Is there any way the database can be linked to Outlook with
reminders or signoff capabilities?
