Retrieves the stored phone number of the local client user. Not scriptable.

Syntax

HRESULT get_MyPhoneNumber(
   [in] MPHONE_TYPE PhoneType,
   [out,
   retval] BSTR* pbstrNumber
);

Parameters

  • PhoneType
    A value of the enumeration.
  • pbstrNumber
    A string (not a numeric data type) that contains the requested phone number. This number can contain punctuation, depending on how the data was collected.

Return Value

Returns one of the following values.

  • S_OK
    Success.
  • RPC_X_NULL_REF_POINTER
    pbstrNumber is a null pointer.
  • MSGR_E_NOT_LOGGED_ON
    The client is not signed in to the primary service at the time this method is called.
  • E_FAIL
    The requested phone number does not exist. pbstrNumber will be a null string.

Remarks

This method replaces the deprecated MyPhoneNumber property. The method returns a string representing the requested telephone number formatted as a TEL URI (+19999999999). The acceptable input parameter values can be found in the MPHONE_TYPE enumeration. The telephone numbers returned by this method are those that are input on the Phones tab in the Options dialog box in the Office Communicator UI.

Example

The following example calls get_MyPhoneNumber on communicator, an IMessenger interface object. The method returns the logged-on user's work telephone number. The telephone number string is output to the application console window.

string myHomePhone = null;
try
{
    myHomePhone = communicator.get_MyPhoneNumber(MPHONE_TYPE.MPHONE_TYPE_WORK);
    if (myHomePhone != null)
        Console.WriteLine(myHomePhone);
}
catch (COMException PNCE)
{
    Console.WriteLine(PNCE.ErrorCode.ToString());
}
