How to difference contacts from groups

J

Juan Rodriguez

Hi !
I've noticed looping through ContactItems that contacts and groups are
stored right there.
The only way of difference them is that Groups do not have a name or there
is a property ?
TIA

Check the value of the Class property of the Item object: 40 or olContact
indicates a Contact, 69 or olDistributionList indicates Distribution Lists
(what you are calling Groups).

Outlook does not store groups. What you are seeing are DistListItem objects,
i.e. distribution lists . You can use the Class property to distinguish
between them and ContactItem objects.
