Posted by JT on February 15, 2006, 3:57 pm Please log in for more thread options Ok, it seems like there's no way to extract the WebPage property from a Contact when created through the phone address book and given the value www.something.com (missing the http:// making it an invalid URI value). I've also tried accessing it trough the ContactProperty collection (ContactProperty[WebPage]) with no luck. Is my only option to do it natively? And how much work would it involve since I'm not very familiar doing things natively. Thank you. Posted by JT on February 15, 2006, 6:55 pm Please log in for more thread options Would this require creating a dll which would be a C++ wrapper around the POOM and then importing this dll into my project? Like the Sample POOM Wrapper project available on the microsoft site. Any other solutions to this?
