Hi,
I would recomend using the office interop assemblies they solve some
problems with working with office. If you are not using them you can get
rid of that imports statement.

Hi,
Here is a sample console app.
Imports System.Reflection
Imports Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Module Module1
Sub Main()
' Create Outlook application.
Dim oApp As Outlook.Application = New Outlook.Application
' Get Mapi NameSpace.
Dim oNS As Outlook.NameSpace = oApp.GetNamespace("mapi")
oNS.Logon("YourProfileName", Missing.Value, False, True) ' TODO:
' Get Messages collection of Inbox.
Dim oInbox As Outlook.MAPIFolder =
oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFo lderContacts)
Dim oItems As Outlook.Items = oInbox.Items
Console.WriteLine("Total : " & oItems.Count)
Console.WriteLine("Total Unread : " & oItems.Count)
' Loop each unread message.
Dim oContact As Outlook.ContactItem
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To oItems.Count
Try
oContact = DirectCast(oItems.Item(i), Outlook.ContactItem)
Console.WriteLine(i)
Console.WriteLine(oContact.FullName)
Catch
End Try
Console.WriteLine("---------------------------")
Next
' Log off.
oNS.Logoff()
' Clean up.
oApp = Nothing
oNS = Nothing
oItems = Nothing
oContact = Nothing
End Sub
End Module

Hi
I am trying to access outlook contacts folders and delete the contacts
that do not contain a certain category value in the categories field. I have
written the below code but am stuck with the error on the indicated line.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Regards
Dim O As Outlook.Application
Dim F As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim ICount As Long
Dim oContact As Outlook.ContactItem
Dim obj As Outlook.ContactItem
O = New Outlook.Application
F =
O.Session.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolder s.olFolderContacts) For Each obj In F.Items() ' This line gives error: Expression is of type
'Outlook.Items', which is not a collection type.
If TypeOf obj Is Outlook.ContactItem Then
oContact = obj
If InStr(oContact.Categories, "mycat") Then
oContact.Delete()
End If
End If
Next
