According to the Wikipedia article ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Address_Book ), there is a Windows Address Book API that can be used to read it. FWIW the WAB API reference is at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms629440(VS.85).aspx

Sorry for drifting this thread offtopic, but does anyone else notice the problem with news2news.com/vfp website in IE7? I refer to the top menu problem?

Thanks in advance.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
