"Fokder does not contain contacts" in Microsof Outlook

[HBruno]

Hi,

I am trying to get a code for exporting data from an custom outlook form to
Excel.
I had tried several routines but they don´t functions.
In the last routine below, i keep getting the message "Folder does not
contain contacts", but I have more than 300 contacts in the folder
\Inbox\Tickets.
So what am i doing wrong?

Heres the code
