Excell linked to outlook contacts

Does anyone know if it it possible to link a cell in Excell to a contact in
Outlook 2003. I know you can create hyperlinks to web pages or files but I
have people saved in the contacts section of outlook with descryptions of
what they do and procedures they perform. I would like to build a spredsheet
that contains some hyperlinks in cells that would open the contact.

Thanks
David

Yes. You can create a VBA procedure and use the COM to access an Outlook object, then assign the macro to the cell, or use a hotkey
and reference the selected cell's contents.
