SUMMARY
The AddressBook dialog box, displayed by the AddressBook method of the
Session object, is not modal.
MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a documenation error in the
Collaboration Data Objects (CDO 1.x) documentation.
Setting the parentWindow parameter to a valid hWnd in the calling
application, results in the AddressBook dialog box being modal to that
particular window. This prevents the possibility of closing the application
while the AddressBook dialog box displays.
The Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) documentation for the AddressBook
method of the Session object is incorrect in stating that a value of 0
(default) for the parentWindow parameter results in the AddressBook dialog
box being application modal.
