Hello All,

   I am working on Outlook 2007 PlugIns. I want to know how I can access the fields like firstname, lastname, ... from the Contact Form. Suppose I clicked on New option for creating new contact and I entered some values into the Contact fields (firstname - Joe, lastname - Smith,...) and then I need to get the entered values from the Contact fields for saving that contact record into local database.

   Suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi - sorry to replying to late - I need to enhance this process.

So - How would I solve this:

I would use an Inspector-Wrapper and hook into the Item Write event.
This is fired before the Item is saved into Outlook.
Here you can grab all Properties and save it to your DB.

Here is a sample-Inspectorwrapper:
