I am trying to get the Outlook 2003 addressbook to popup in Visual Basic
6.0. We had an old OTM program that used the CDO function AddressBook() but
now we are building an addin and would like to keep this funtionality.

I want to do it without using CDO and just use Outlook objects. Is there
anyway to get this to work?


Thanks in advance

The Outlook object model itself has no objects to do this. Outook does,
however, include a separate Safe Address Book Wrapper component
(msosvabw.dll), that works almost exactly like the CDO Session.AddressBook
method, including triggering security prompts. If you want to avoid security
prompts, you'll need to use Redemption.
 
Sue,

Thank you. I will give this a try.
