+<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
+<p>The <code>GetList</code> method retrieves a list of contacts,
+contact groups, or contacts databases. Contacts and contact groups are retrieved
+from the specified contacts database or, if no database is specified, from
+the default one.</p>
+<p>This method can be called both synchronously and asynchronously.</p>
+<div class="note"><p><strong class="note_title">Note: </strong>Calls that retrieve a list of databases must always be synchronous.</p>
+</div>
+<p><strong>Syntax:</strong></p>
+<p>For synchronous calls:</p>
+<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-5017A498-4BF1-48C1-B6AD-44DB3DC7436E">result = so.IDataSource.GetList(criteria);</pre>
+
+<p>For asynchronous calls:</p>
+<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-22320C1F-DC1F-4D35-BDFE-25E12DA64321">result = so.IDataSource.GetList(criteria, callback);</pre>
+
+<p><strong>Arguments:</strong></p>
+<ul>
+<li><p><code>criteria</code>:</p>
+
+<p>This is an object that specifies what contact information is returned
+and how the returned information is sorted. For more information about the
+object properties and how to define them, see section <a href="GUID-06C803FE-DD16-44B5-B9C7-2EC9D497D425.html#GUID-06C803FE-DD16-44B5-B9C7-2EC9D497D425">Criteria for retrieving contact information</a>.</p>
+
+</li>
+<li><p><code>callback</code>:</p>
+
+<p>The <code>callback</code> argument is the name of the method
+that is executed when an asynchronous <code>GetList</code> call has
+results or status information to return. You must define this method separately.
+Follow the instructions in section <a href="GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608.html#GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608">Defining the callback handler for an asynchronous method</a> to
+define the <code>callback</code> method.</p>
+<p>This argument is used only with an asynchronous <code>GetList</code> call.</p>
+
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p><strong>Return value:</strong></p>
+<p>If synchronous, the <code>GetList</code> method returns an object
+that contains the requested contact information, an error code, and an error
+message.</p>
