Hi gurus,

i'm writing an application working with WAB (Windows Address Book). My
target is to pop up UI for user to select recipient(s).

In the WAB documentation, it says IAddrBook-Address() displays the
recipient selection UI. But when calling this method, the UI was not
what i expected: some controls are missing (e.g. the recipients list
box), some buttons are not expected (e.g., delete/new group button).

Is there're some other interfaces/method to configure the UI before
popping it up ?

thanks in advance
edward

MSDN has complete references explaining how to program for the Windows
Address Book and
the WAB API:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...b/wabentry.asp

Also look at the MAPI API for some added info:

OK, they've updated the links (Geez, I hate when they do that without prior
notification) and the WAB API info is at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...b/wabentry.asp

Info about MAPI can be found he

Got it. The problem is solved. what i have to do is just set
ADRPARM.cDestFields properly while calling IAddrBook::Address()
Thanks so much.

Glad it helped. Thanks for the feedback.
