How access contacts database on WM5

| Hello,
Could you please advice me how to access the Contacts database which is in
the volume PIM.VOL, i.e. on smartphone with OS WM5.
Function CeMountDBVol(&vol1,L"\\PIM.VOL",OPEN_EXISTING ); it does not open
the volume, even when I make a copy of it as a file under different name and
it is then not used in any other way.
Definitely I need to work with mentioned database so that the changes made
in original OS application will be shown immediately in my application and
vice-versa.
Thank you
Patrik

| You can use POOM to access this data, also look at the notification
functionality new in WM5 which will allow you to react to changes from
outside of your application when items are added/changed/deleted.
