Just wondering what functions i would need ( possibly includes )
to print someones msn contacts to a window ( selectable )
and then print text to it and send it.

If you will search the MSDN for the phrase "Windows Messenger Client Reference" you will get a list interfaces to communicate with the MSN messenger.
Most likely you will need to get an instance of the "Messenger" object from the function "CoCreateInstance". The Messenger object will provide you the way to perform the actions.
