>    ' delete all the current contacts
>    For Each olContactItem In olFolder.Items
>        olContactItem.Delete
>    Next
>
> where:
>
> Dim olContactItem As outlook.ContactItem
> Dim olFolder As outlook.MAPIFolder
>

> The loop takes a while to run but after it's done the contacts are still 
> in
> the folder.  Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here?
