Terence,

That should be the correct call you are using. Be careful,
valueForProperty returns a immutable value, not a mutable one! Are you
sure you have the correct Person? This is the code I been using lately.
Given an ABPerson (a_ab_person) & an NSMutableString (a_output_str),
the following code lists each phone (label: number) for the given
person into the output string:

int a_int;
int a_count;
NSString* a_str;
ABMultiValue* a_multi;

[a_output_str setString:@""];
a_multi = [a_ab_person valueForProperty:kABPhoneProperty];
if (a_multi) {
a_int = [a_multi count];
if (a_int>0) {
for (a_count=0; a_count<a_int; a_count++) {
a_str = [a_multi labelAtIndex:a_count];

[a_output_str
appendString:ABLocalizedPropertyOrLabel(a_property_str)];
[a_output_str appendString:@": "];

a_str = [a_multi valueAtIndex:a_count];

[a_output_str appendString: a_str];
[a_output_str appendString:@"\n"];
}
}

Hope this helps!

ps. Be on the look out for a new shareware Address Book print utility
from my company!
