I want to know how to get the Contacts from the Outlook in chunks. At the moment I am able to get the Contacts from Outlook quite quickly, but I am concerned about future possibility that there could be for e.g. 1000 contacts in my address book. How do I get ....say....the first 100 contacts and load it and then get the next 100 and load it and so on instead of getting all the data at once? Any help would be highly appreciated. ---Mounil.

Not sure I follow why you would do this ... what if one of the 100 that you've already loaded gets changed between you getting it and going for the next 100? What kind of gap are we talking about you wanting to have between getting each chunk? Chris. Quote: I want to know how to get the Contacts from the Outlook in chunks.

The user can choose to load contacts from various address books ....Outlook/Outlook Express/any other internal address books. At the moment, when the user selects to load the contacts from the Outlook, the app kinda hangs up while it retrieves them...hence, i wanted to know if its a good idea to implement threads....so the user wont have to wait for the contacts to load....and can choose to load contacts from the other address books while the one's from Outlook are still loading.
