Enumerating Outlook ContactItem Properties

Question

I am trying to list the properties of a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ContactItem object (call it ci) with this code:

        System.Reflection.BindingFlags bf = System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Default;

        foreach (System.Reflection.PropertyInfo pi in ci.GetType().GetProperties(bf))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Property Info {0}", pi.Name);
        }

I really tried several combinations of BindingFlag values, but no properties are returned.

This is how ContactItem is defined: using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
{
    [Guid("00063021-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
    [CoClass(typeof(ContactItemClass))]
    public interface ContactItem : _ContactItem, ItemEvents_10_Event
    {
    }
}

This is how _ContactItem is defined (for simplicity, I saved only 3 details):

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook
{
    [TypeLibType(4160)]
    [Guid("00063021-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
    public interface _ContactItem
    {
       [DispId(14848)]
       string Account { get; set; }
       [DispId(63511)]
       Actions Actions { get; }
       [DispId(14913)]
       DateTime Anniversary { get; set; }
    }
}

Can someone help me?

Thank you in advance
