I seen these threats were you can pick up users from your own contact list.

But is it possible to pick up user information from the Global Address List in Outlook. My idea is to have a form asking the user to pick its own name, and then insert the information ( Fullname, e-mail etc.) in the document.



I hope you have some ideas on how I can solve this problem.:think:

Hi and welcome to VBAX! :hi:

I don't have Outlook Exchange so I cannot test for you.

This article should give a example of how to retrieve all the data you're looking for:
