How can I make a check names dialogue similar to the one in outlook from a microsoft word template in Visual Studio/C# ? I made a text box and I expect the user to click a button, which will take the text entered as input parameter. Is there a way to invoke somehow the check names dialogue from my global address list from outlook in visual studio 2008-2012(c#)?

Thanks

It's not exactly what you're asking for, but may be usefull. You can implement autocompletion mechanism. It will check names while user types names in. To use it, you have to use ComboBox control, and fill properties:

Items - with contact collection.
AutoCompleteMode - to Apped.
AutoCompleteSource - to ListItems.

To get contacts from your Outlook, use Office Interop Assemblies.
