Hi,
I need to fetch my outlook contacts in a csv file using c#.

I am able to do it by writing all the fields one by one in my data.csv.
e.g.


for (int i = 1; i = contactFld.Items.Count ; i++)
{
Outlook.ContactItem contact =
(Outlook.ContactItem)contactFld.ItemsIdea;


if (contact.Email1Address != null || contact.Email2Address
!= null || contact.Email3Address != null)
{
try
{
sw.Write(contact.FirstName);
sw.Write("',");
sw.Write(contact.LastName);
sw.Write("',");
sw.WriteLine(contact.Email1Address);

}
catch (Exception e1)
{
MessageBox.Show("Error");
}
}
}

Now, instead of creating this .csv file, I want to fetch the .csv file
diretly.

Is there any method to fetch it directly from MAPIFolder element?
Or any other way..

Thanks for all of your help here guys. The code that Eric gave me and the new
approach Sue contributed will help me greatly.

I would sit here and ask you to hold my hand through writing this code, but
where's the accomplishment in that? haha

Thanks again,

Brian L (the 16 year old programmer :-P )

Right, if you use those rule condition/exceptions, you won't have to do Step #2 at all.
