You can use Redemption to do what you want in a way that won't depend on
using the Outlook 2007 object model.

Use RDOSession and get session.AddressBook.ShowAddressBook() to get back an
RDORecipients collection. Iterate that collection and for each RDORecipient
use its AddressEntry.GetContact() method to retrieve the contact as an
RDOContactItem. You can use the RDOContactItem then or get its EntryID if
you want to retrieve the corresponding Outlook.ContactItem.
