I've used a connection string for Outlook 2003 to query my contacts and emails. How can I update my connection string to work with Outlook 2010? I've tried google, but have not found anything that works yet.

To query email,

C++

Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Exchange 4.0;MAPILEVEL=Personal Folders|;PROFILE=Outlook;TABLETYPE=0;DATABASE=C:\temp;Persist Security

To query address book,

C++

Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Exchange 4.0;MAPILEVEL=Outlook Address Book;PROFILE=Outlook;TABLETYPE=1;DATABASE=C:\Documents and Settings\Ted\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook;Persist Security Info=False

Unfortunately that did not work. I replace C:\Temp with C:\Windows\Temp since my fresh copy of Windows 7 does not have that directory.
