Create new document in .nsf file using interop.domino.dll c# specially a contact under user

Question

I am trying trying to create a new contact under a specific user. My contact is created successfully but I am not able see my contact in $Contacts View instead of that that is exist under (Recently Archived) folder of the username.nsf file. How can create a new document under $Contacts View . This is the code snippet which I used to create new contact document.

NotesDatabase _localDatabase = _lotusNotesServerSession.GetDatabase("servername", "mail/username.nsf", false);                   

if(!_localDatabase.IsOpen)
{
    _localDatabase.Open();
}                  

NotesDocument contact = _localDatabase.CreateDocument();
contact.ReplaceItemValue("First Name","Test");
contact.ReplaceItemValue("Last Name", "Contact ");
contact.ReplaceItemValue("Mail Address", "testcontact@domain.com");
contact.ReplaceItemValue("Full Name", "Test Contact");
bool issuccess = contact.Save(true,false,false);

Answer 1

If you open the two views in Domino Designer, you'll see the criteria for which documents appear in each (the View Selection formula). The selection formula for ($Contacts) requires any document to have the Form field set to "Person" or "Group". You're not setting the Form field. So just add contact.ReplaceItemValue("Form","Person") and you'll solve the problem.
