If you want to get all the values from a picklist, use the MetaDataService. Here's some code to do so.

Everything you are saying can be done thru customization... no need to install or use VS2008.
There is a couple of great books out there. Check out http://www.amazon.com/Working-Microsoft-Dynamics-CRM-4-0/dp/0735623783 which is one of them.
You you really need to access the picklist for this entity in another software, the code from Focus is the one that you are looking for.
