As part of a PythonCard sample that I wrote today, I created some code to import Outlook contacts. While the fields I decided to import are specific to the Addresses sample I created for PythonCard, the logic is generic and could be used for other projects. I haven't done much testing with it and I'm sure Mark or some other win32 guru could make suggestions to clean it up, but it does seem to work. The sample is included in whole below. Because of the wrapping problems with email, you can also get at the source here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/pythoncard/PythonCardPrototyp e/samples/addresses/outlook.py If you're interested in the full Addresses sample or anything else PythonCard, the PythonCard home page is at http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/ The addresses sample will either get included in a prototype daily release that I do later tonight or a general prototype release tomorrow. You can also get the latest version from cvs. ka --- """ __version__ = "$Revision: 1.3 $" __date__ = "$Date: 2001/08/23 02:06:49 $" I need a more generic way of dealing with these modules that may not be available.
