Remarks

If you set the ShowAsOutlookAB property of a contact items folder to False, it will not be available in the drop-down list under Address Book in the Address Book dialog box.

ShowAsOutlookAB does not support folders on another Exchange user's mailbox, for example, a Contacts folder that is shared by another user. Getting or setting this property on such a folder will not produce any desired results.
