I think the problem is not writing the data on the sheet, I think it is the time it takes to get the information from Outlook.


But try the following, change 1000 for the number of data you need to extract. It is the only way I found.

Sub GetOutlookAddressBook()
  Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application, objAddressList As Outlook.AddressList
  Dim oItem As Outlook.AddressEntry, i As Long, arr, n As Long, num As Long
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
  Set objAddressList = objOutlook.Session.AddressLists("Global Address List")
  Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A:C").ClearContents
  n = 1
  num = [COLOR=#ff0000]1000[/COLOR]
  ReDim arr(1 To num, 1 To 3)
  On Error Resume Next
  For i = 1 To num
    arr(n, 1) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).Name
    arr(n, 2) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).GetExchangeUser.Alias
    arr(n, 3) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).GetExchangeUser.PrimarySmtpAddress
    n = n + 1
  Next
  Range("A2").Resize(UBound(arr), 3).Value = arr
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Thank you

ill give that a go

i have potentially 10k agents to pull back and also I get the outlook security message and as it’s taking longer than 5 minutes, I’m constantly having to press allow after every 5 mins

Try the following, it will show you the item number in statusbar

Sub GetOutlookAddressBook()
  Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application, objAddressList As Outlook.AddressList
  Dim oItem As Outlook.AddressEntry, i As Long, arr, n As Long, num As Long
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Application.DisplayAlerts = False
  Application.StatusBar = False
  Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
  Set objAddressList = objOutlook.Session.AddressLists("Lista global de direcciones")
  Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A:C").ClearContents
  n = 1
  num = 1000
  ReDim arr(1 To num, 1 To 3)
  On Error Resume Next
  For i = 1 To num
[COLOR=#0000ff]    Application.StatusBar = "Item : " & i[/COLOR]
    arr(n, 1) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).Name
    arr(n, 2) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).GetExchangeUser.Alias
    arr(n, 3) = objAddressList.AddressEntries(i).GetExchangeUser.PrimarySmtpAddress
    n = n + 1
  Next
  Range("A2").Resize(UBound(arr), 3).Value = arr
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
  Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub
