Am I missing something here?

What is the difference between Outlook Express and MS Outlook Express are
they not the same solution?

Of course there is MS Outlook, which is for MS Exchange.

I'll assume your asking "I want to get Microsoft Outlook (Not Outlook
Express)" address book entries in a VB App"

The answer is that you need a copy of Outlook on the machine are
developing on and you need to add a COM reference to "Microsoft
Outlook XX Object Library" (where XX is the version number)

Then you can create and use the objects in this library to get the
addresses out. It's not too complicated.

A word of warning. When you attempt to fetch an address, Outlook will
open a warning dialog to the user that says "An application is
attempting to read your addressbook. This could be a worm. Do you wish
to authorise this request". I wouldn't of thought you can get rid of
it but who knows, I've never tried.

Good luck

Phill
