Exchanges data between FileMaker® Pro and Microsoft Outlook®

Welcome to the Outlook Manipulator v4 product page! If you want to eliminate double entry by exchanging data between FileMaker Pro and Outlook then this is the plug-in for you. This powerful plug-in will exchange data with Microsoft Outlook Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Mail, Notes and Journal for the "user’s" default folder, public and shared folders within the Exchange Environment. As information gets entered into your FileMaker database during the day your users Outlook folders are updated. This allows your users the ability to synchronize with their mobile devices such as a Blackberry or iPhone.

In addition to the Outlook Manipulator v4 we also produce two other plug-ins to exchange data between Microsoft Outlook and FileMaker.

- Outlook SendMail: Use this plug-in to send plain text or HTML formatted e-mail with multiple attachments through Microsoft Outlook while suppressing the Outlook security dialog.

- Exchange Manipulator: Use this plug-in if you need the added power of communicating with ANY Exchange mailbox. This plug-in allows you to automate the data import/export process from a single client, eliminating the need to install the plug-in on every workstation.
