dotnet interop : Late binding equivalent

Everything stays the same except:

1) All your "As xxxx" change to "As Object"
2) o = New Outlook.Application changes to o =
CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

And you get rid of the direct casts (since you can't cast to an object time
you don't know about).

Oh yeah, and Option Strict Off needs to be at the top of the module, I'm
pretty sure.

Sheesh. If the starting point I gave couldn't get you started, you really
shouldn't be programming. I mean, seriously...it seems that some really
really BASIC concepts are eluding you. You're basically looking for someone
to do it *for you*

Why are using CType? Do you know what it does? Stop trying to "cast." Same
goes for the constant "olContactItem." Find out what integer this represents
(um, research... use your wits) and use that in the place of the constant.

Getting error on Outlook.ContactItem on line below. How do I deal with this?

iCon = CType(F.Items().Add(2), Outlook.ContactItem)

Thanks

Hi

What is the late binding equivalent of the below code?

Many Thanks

Regards

Dim O As Outlook.Application
Dim F As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim iCon As Outlook.ContactItem
Dim oContact As Outlook.ContactItem

O = New Outlook.Application

F =
O.Session.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderContacts)
oContact = DirectCast(F.Items.Item(1), Outlook.ContactItem)
oContact.Delete()

iCon = CType(F.Items().Add(Outlook.OlItemType.olContactItem),
Outlook.ContactItem)
F.Items().Add(Outlook.OlItemType.olContactItem)
