Selecting Contact Folder

[Michael Steffen]

Hi there,

I've developed an Outlook - Addin with VB.NET to insert Contacts into
Outlook with data retrieved from an SQL Database. At this time the AddIn
determines the Default Contact Folder by using the

GetDefaultFolder Function

of the Namespace.

Now I would like to advance this AddIn by giving the User the opportunity to
select the ContactFolder (if multiple contact Folders exist).
Therefore I need to display all available ContactFolders in a Dialog to let
the User select from.

How does this work?

Thanks in advance...

Michael

The Namespace.PickFolder method displays the entire folder list in a
selection dialog. There is no built-in method for displaying only contact
folders.

FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for general Outlook programming
issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba
