Enum contacts in a group by JJay on 05-03-2008 at 08:44 PM
Is there any way to list all contacts from a particular contact group, from the scripting?
I cannot see a way.
(This is my first script for Msg+)

No, Messenger Plus has no way at all to access group data

Thanks very much for the reply.
That is a big shame though.

Tell that to Microsoft, they never fixed their internal API for groups unfortunately 
.

Really, ah annoying. I know the correct functions are listed in the API documentation but I suppose they don't work then?
Also by the way a 'get friendly name' method for the Contact object would be useful. Again, that is in the API and so there shouldn't be an issue with it.

The Contact has all of these properties what more could you want (aside from Groups).

By 'friendly name' I mean the nickname you can associate with a contact.

Plus! doesn't have access to the WLM Nickname you can set per contact. This currently is a limitation.
