Export VCF filesI can import .vcf files into my Contacts but I don't see any way to export
my contacts as a vcf file other than one by one. I can right click a contact and choose Export as Vcard and it works. But when I highlight multiple contacts and right click that is not an option. I tried highlighting multiple entries, right clicking and choosing Forward and that ends up attaching them as multiple attachments. Is there any way to export them all as one file that can be imported into Outlook by the addressee? In a manner similar to export/import of Windows Address Book (WAB) in Outlook Express. That puts them all in one .wab file for export/import use. I'm using Outlook 2000 and my friends I'm exchanging data with use Outlook 2002 and 2003. You can always move them to a separate contacts folder and export that to a .csv or other format file.

I address it to myself at my Outlook Express address and add some comments. I then open Outlook Express, get the message and it shows the comments but no attachments.

You import the address book into the palm desktop and it can be exported as a single vcf file. I have used this to import address books into my new cell phones. I did this with my samsung and sanyo. I was able to send the vcf file to my phones file manager and open it as an address book.  |
