Hi
I using vb .Net 2003.
I want to add new contacts to the outlook address book by code. How can i do
that?

And will it work for all the Outlook versions?

Thanks Lee

Hi Lee,

Traditionally you would use COM/OLE to create an Outlook express object to
do this, so with older Office versions this is what you will have to do.

With .NET you should just be able to just add an assembley reference to the
Office 2k3 or Outlook application and go from there.

Consult the API documentation and the Object browser from then onwards.
