Accessing Global Address Book

Hi All,
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get an address, or two, from the
Windows Global Address Book? I have been trying to figure this out for
awhile and have run into a brick wall.

I want to open the Address Book, select address(s) and return that info to
my program.

Thanks,
John.

Do you have a copy of the Outlook object model? That is the best starting
point.

It's relatively easy to do which is why so many macro virii are making their
way around the Internet.

If you can't find it, let me know and I'll put together some code for you.
