_ExchangeDistributionList.GetContact Method

Returns Nothing (a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in C#) because the ExchangeDistributionList object does not correspond to a contact in a Contacts Address Book.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<DispIdAttribute()> _
Function GetContact As ContactItem
'Usage
Dim instance As _ExchangeDistributionList
Dim returnValue As ContactItem

returnValue = instance.GetContact()
[DispIdAttribute()]
ContactItem GetContact()

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ContactItem
Nothing (a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) in C#) because the ExchangeDistributionList object does not correspond to a contact in a Contacts Address Book.

Remarks

The ExchangeDistributionList object is derived from the AddressEntry object. It inherits the GetContact method from the AddressEntry object, and in the case of ExchangeDistributionList, this method always returns Nothing.
