MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2005How do I display a contact picture in a user defined form or cust.
Is the contact picture associated with a user accessable field? I would like to create a custom form and view similar to an ID badge displaying a contact photo and basic information. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpicture.htm#control . FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public .outlook.program_forms  SignatureSue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx > Is the contact picture associated with a user accessable field?

How do I access the contact picture in Outlook 2003, which is some sort of "attachment". I know how to add it to a form once I have access to it. > See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpicture.htm#control . > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > contact > > photo and basic information. An item that already has a picture stores the image in an attachment named ContactPicture.jpg.

How do I access ContactPicture.jpg or any attachment for that matter. The only field available, that I am aware of is "attachment" which is boolean ("yes"/"no")? Obviously the default contacts form has access; and I can display it by right,clicking and choosing "view attachment"; but how can I access it to put on my own custom form? The standard library version of the contacts form omits this field in the forms designer. > An item that already has a picture stores the image in an attachment named > ContactPicture.jpg.

Take a look at the MailItem.Attachments collection and the Attachment object and their methods, which you can use in code, including VBScript behind a form. The new picture control on the Outlook 2003 contact form is not available to programmers. The page I suggested earlier has alternative solutions.
