Dear Sir/Ma'am,

I am passing "APP_TYPE_ADDRESSBOOK" to open the addressbook from my application using Invoke API.
If I select a contact from the address-book and want it to be returned to my application, is that possible?

I want to select the contact and send to the server through an XML.

PROBLEM:

I create my own check-Box list which shows all the contacts from the address book. Then all I had to do was to select the contact and send them to the server. Problem came when the client told that it is taking too much time to open the customized address book list with 1000 contacts.

When I tried to open the same with the Invoke, it did open within a second, on the PEARL device.

Can I now interact the BlackBerry contact book with my application - (though it is returning only one contact at a time and there is no method to select multiple contacts at the same time)?

regards
