Outlook 2010 code

The problem is, I know nothing about C++ but I have everything I need to make the script I want. The problem is, I don't know how to put it together. The script changes the default address book in outlook. It works fine, as long as the "Choose automatically" option isn't selected in Outlook 2010.

The code that works is:
