**********************************************

 final PIM pim = PIM.getInstance(); 

                BlackBerryContactList contactList = null;

              String number = "";

         //*                     

           try{

           contactList = (BlackBerryContactList) pim.openPIMList(PIM.CONTACT_LIST, PIM.READ_WRITE);          ////   This will ///invoke ur contact list

            }catch(Exception e)

            {System.out.println("Error  : : "+e);}

              final PIMItem selectedItem =  contactList.choose();     

                         try{ 

                           int[] fieldIds = selectedItem.getFields();

                           int id;     

         for (int atrCount = 0;atrCount < selectedItem.countValues(Contact.TEL); ++atrCount)

          {

            switch(selectedItem.getAttributes(Contact.TEL, atrCount))

            {

              case Contact.ATTR_MOBILE:

             String value =  selectedItem.getString(Contact.TEL, atrCount);

               System.out.println("GGGGGGGGGGGggg ot it :: "+value);

               number = value;

                break;

            }

          }

           if(number != "")

               {System.out.println("Innnnn");}

               else

               {

               System.out.println("Outttttt");

               Dialog.alert("OOPS not a mobile number!!");

               System.out.println("Outttttt 1231231212122");

            }

                           }    catch(Exception e)

                           {System.out.println("EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE "+e);}

                                  if (selectedItem instanceof Contact)

                                   {        System.out.println("User selected a Contact: " +selectedItem );  

                                   } 

                                   else if (selectedItem instanceof BlackBerryContactGroup) 

                                   {        System.out.println("User selected a BlackBerryContactGroup: " + selectedItem);    }

                                   else

                                    {        // at this point we can assume that selectedItem==null, indicating user cancelled  

                                         System.out.println("User cancelled the selection");    }
