How to identify item in DistList that's also in Contacts?
Outlook 2003 pops up a form when a Distribution List is double-clicked, that
shows different icons for those items (members of the List) that are also in the user's Contacts list. How can I programmatically discover that? Is there a property that I can use, or must I check one collection against the other? -- Ian Thomas

How to identify item in DistList that's also in Contacts?
Strictly speaking, you can parse the DL member entry id to extract the
regular AB entry id, then parse the AB entry id to extract the IPM.Contact message entry id from it. None of that is documented of course... Outlook 2007 will include the AddressEntry.GetContact method, that will let you do what you need. plugNext version of Redemption will include that nethod too (it will work in all version of Outlook) - contact me at my private e-mail address if you want a copy of beta/plug Dmitry Streblechenko (MVP) http://www.dimastr.com/ OutlookSpy - Outlook, CDO and MAPI Developer Tool "gxdata" wrote in message ...

Why does it have to be so hard, to do very simple things? -- IL Thomas "Dmitry Streblechenko" wrote in message ...
