Message: [QUOTE="Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook], post: 5365354"] Outlook may run out of memory if you have hundreds of contacts in the folder. See [URL]http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/popcombobox.htm[/URL] for an alternative approach using CDO. I don't understand why you're looping through the list twice. For ease of opening the related contact record, you may want to use a multi-column combo box with a hidden second column holding the contact's EntryID. If you do that, you can use the Namespace.GetItemFromID method to open the contact. To fill a multi-column list or combo box, you'll usually want to use an array to set the value of control.List, rather than using AddItem for each row. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers [/QUOTE]
