Outlook and logon

[Saeed]

in a code i mtrying to logon to outlook and get al te contacts details.

            Outlook.Application oApp = new Outlook.Application();
            Outlook.NameSpace oNS = oApp.GetNamespace("mapi");
            oNS.Logon("", null, null, null);
            Outlook.MAPIFolder oContacts = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderContacts);
            
            Outlook.Items oItems = (Outlook.Items)oContacts.Items;
            int i = oItems.Count;
            if (i > 0)
            {
                Outlook.ContactItem oCt = (Outlook.ContactItem)oItems.GetFirst();
                while (i > 0)
                {
                    string temp = oCt.FullName.ToString();
                    oCt = (Outlook.ContactItem)oItems.GetNext();
                    string s = temp;
                    i--;
                }
            }
            oNS.Logoff();

for some reason i am getting zero counts for i and that may have to do with the logon statement.
I have also done it with providing the userid and password and no luck so far , so my question is how do you know if you are actullay logged on or not ?

should not what i have codeed in logon statement pop up a dialog asking me to logon?

I think you are going to need at least a profile name. I use this in some of my .net code.

            ONS.Logon("MyProfileName", "MyPassword", true, true);

This is for a windows active directory domain and outlook 2007 connected to MS Exchange.

I am not exactly sure but you will probably end up with several message boxes asking if you want to allow access to your contacts.

Good luck.
