In MS Access, the best way to create a multiuser tool is to divide your solution. One part acts as interface and other one acts as database. You can have multiple copies of the interface distributed to users which are connected to central MS Access database saved at common shared drive. To connect the interface to database, you can use link table feature (Access>External Data>Import & Link) available in MS Access.

Is Outlook that come with Windows 10 applicable? or is Microsoft Outlook required for VBA? Thanks!
You should have installed and configured Outlook available where you are running the VBA Code.
Can you do this to where you use a specified folder in the code instead of choosing each time?
Yes Rebecca, it is possible to specify the folder in the code. I suggest you to have a look at Outlook Email Management Tool. Once downloaded, we can customize your tool copy for free with remember feature, means the tool will remember last browsed folder to avoid browsing the folder again and again.
