How to use the CDOEX Library to create a contact by using an Item object in Visual C# (310200)

MORE INFORMATION

1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio .NET or Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.
2. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project.
3. In the Visual C# Projects types list, click Console Application.
   
   By default, Class1.cs is created.
   
   Note In Visual Studio 2005, click Console Application in the Visual C# list. By default, Program.cs is created.
4. Add a reference to the CDOEX Library. To do so, follow these steps:
   1. On the Project menu, click Add Reference.
   2. Click the COM tab, locate Microsoft CDO for Exchange 2000 Library, and then click Select.
   3. In the Add References dialog box, click OK.
   4. If you are prompted to generate wrappers for the libraries that you selected, click Yes.
   Note CDOEX is supported only through a COM interop.
5. If Visual Studio .NET or Visual Studio 2005 does not add a reference to the Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library, repeat step 4 to add a reference to it.
6. In the code window, replace the code with the following:

   using System;
   
   namespace Samples
   {
   	class Class1
   	{
   		static void Main(string[] args)
   		{
   			try 
   			{
   			CDO.Item oItem = new CDO.Item();
   
                           // TODO: Replace with your folder URL
   			string sURL = "http://ExchServer/Exchange/UserAlias/Contacts";
   
   			ADODB.Fields oFields;	
   			oFields = oItem.Fields;
   
   			oFields["DAV:contentclass"].Value = "urn:content-classes:person";
   			oFields["http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/outlookmessageclass"].Value = "IPM.Contact";
   			oFields["urn:schemas:contacts:cn"].Value = "David Jones";
   			oFields["urn:schemas:contacts:nickname"].Value = "Dave";
   			oFields["urn:schemas:contacts:title"].Value = "Engineer";
   			oFields["urn:schemas:contacts:department"].Value = "DSX Messaging";
   			oFields["urn:schemas:contacts:email1"].Value = "someone@example.com";
   
   
   			oFields.Update();
   
   			oItem.DataSource.SaveToContainer(sURL, null, // has oCn or not, OK
   				ADODB.ConnectModeEnum.adModeReadWrite, 
   				ADODB.RecordCreateOptionsEnum.adCreateNonCollection, 
   				ADODB.RecordOpenOptionsEnum.adOpenSource,  
   				"", "");
   
   
   			oItem = null;
   			oFields = null;
   			}
   			catch (Exception e)
   			{
   				Console.WriteLine("{0} Exception caught.", e);
   			}			
   		}
           }
   }

7. Search for TODO in the code, and then modify the code for your environment.
8. Press F5 to build and to run the program.
9. Make sure that the contact was created.
