Change displayed mail address

[Peter Marchert]

Hello,

is it possible to change the displayed mail address in an contact?

I don`t mean the checkbox which you can set by the
SelectedMailingAddress-Property.

Normally the business address is displayed but the user can change it
to the home address if he clicks on the little arrow besides the
button. Is it possible to change this "view" by code too?

Thanks

Have you tried using ContactItem.SelectedMailingAddress?

Yes, I have. Should this work?

It's supposed to.

Ok, thank you. It works, if the item is closed, but is there a way to make
the changes visible while the contact is open?

No, just like with folder views (Explorer views) there's no way to force a
refresh other than displaying something else then going back to the original
item (or folder).
