I have tried
http://zcentric.com/2008/09/19/access-the-address-book/
And it works great. But now instead of AddressBook contact i have an array or other structure that have my contacts and i want to show it like an Address Book.
Do i need to make it all custom or is there any way i can use the AddressBook to show my contacts?
Using ABPeoplePickerNavigationController you can only fetch the contacts from the Ipad or Iphone Address Book.
If you want same functionality with your structure data you need to make it all Custom Using UITableView and other views.
read Addressbook Programming Guid here from apple and you will get detailed answer of your question.

I want to ask a question about the iPhone application. The application can let the user to enter the information in a costumed table (not the contacts book). After that, the program will use the retrieved data to add to the address book. But I don't how to add the content to contacts book. Can any one help me? Thank you very much.
The framework you are looking for is the AddressBook framework, and the guide within the SDK is called "Address Book Programming Guide for iPhone OS"
The method that does this is called ABAddressBookAddRecord
By using IPhone SDK (on a jail broken iPhone), how can I share a contact (.vcf file) through mail as same as the address book is doing?

Have you looked at the Address Book Framework reference? It allows you to fetch records from the Address Book database. You may have to put this data in vCard format yourself, I don't know if the framework provides this functionality for you.
Yes, you can do this on the iPhone:
ABAddressBookRef addressBook = CFAutorelease(ABAddressBookCreate());
NSArray* contacts = (NSArray*)ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllPeople(addressBook);
Erica Sadun's ABContactHelper classes come in mighty handy if you want to mess around with the Address Book interface.
