Accessing WP7 Contacts

I have a project going where I want to automate an SMS and have a time and date to push out the SMS to a specific contact. So how do I pull the contacts from the phone in a neat and efficient manner? Basically I want the user to push a button then the app goes to the contacts list and the user then checks off or clicks a name and that gets stored into a string.

Also, if anyone could give me a hint on how to schedule the sms and get it to launch once the time has arrived, that would be helpful! Thank you in advance!

Take a look at Microsoft.Phone.UserData

You want the PhoneNumberChooser. And you can't queue a SMS to send, really. The user has the final input for security reasons. You could make your app open the SMS screen after a specified time period, but that's a horrible idea.

To send SMS, you'll want SMSComposeTask
