Hi Ahmed,
If you could use POOM API, maybe begin with:
IPOutlookApp::GetDefaultFolder
IFolder::get_Items
Have fun.

You could use EDB to open up the pim.vol and read the contacts database directly.
It works, and while not officially supported and subject to change, this method works, but with the latest changes in POOM you can pretty much do anything you need with the contacts database, from adding custom properties, etc.
It's sad that it's lacking APIs for all of the contact fields, but you can easily get those through GetProps/SetProps.
