I am trying to edit Contacts in Outlook. This is so I can transfer numbers

which enabled me to the contacts
at least list. I had to root around to discover CdoDefaultFolderContacts
(though it was guessable; how could I enumerate win32com.client.constants?).
Well that bit's easy: win32com.client.constants is a small class with
a __dicts__ attribute (note the "s") which is a list of dictionaries, one
per generated library. So you can do something like this:
<code>
import win32com.client
outlook = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch ("Outlook.Application")
outlook_constants = win32com.client.constants.__dicts__[0]
for k, v in outlook_constants.items ():
print k, "=>", v
</code>
I now want to work through the Contacts in Outlook patching in data from my
spreadsheet, and also making new contacts where there is an entry in my
spreadsheet which has not gone into Contacts already.
OK.
Where can I find the API?
