How to retreive the Phone Number and the Email Address from Windows Phone 7 Contacts in c#

To retreive the phone number , all that one should do is to create a new instance of the PhoneNumberChooserTask , attach an phoneNumberChooserTask_Completed Event handler and call the Show method .

PhoneNumberChooserTask PhoneNrChooserTask = new PhoneNumberChooserTask();

PhoneNrChooserTask.Completed += new EventHandler<PhoneNumberResult>(phoneNumberChooserTask_Completed);

PhoneNrChooserTask.Show();

void phoneNumberChooserTask_Completed(object sender, PhoneNumberResult e)
{

  if (e.TaskResult == TaskResult.OK)
  {
      MessageBox.Show(e.PhoneNumber.ToString);
  }

}

The same applies to the EmailAddressChooserTask too .

EmailAddressChooserTask selectEamilAddress = new EmailAddressChooserTask();

selectEamilAddress.Completed += new EventHandler<EmailResult>(emailAddressChooserTask_Completed);

selectEamilAddress.Show();

void emailAddressChooserTask_Completed(object sender, EmailResult e)
{

  if (e.TaskResult == TaskResult.OK)
  {
      MessageBox.Show(e.Email);
  }
}
