Ms. Sue:
I have used Outlook 2000 for years, now I am on 2003 and want to be able to
insert a contact as an item in to a email as "TEXT" and show the "NOTES AREA"
of a contact. It does on 2000, not on 2003 though. Basically, anywhere there
was data in a Contact it would put it in as text into a email.

That copy/paste process has always inserted an embedded item, which the receiving user would have seen as an .msg file. If you want to send an actual vCard .vcf file, you'll need to use the Forward as vCard or File | Save As command.

Hi Sue,

Actually, my process was as follows:

- While in Contacts to Ctrl-C a contact object or more.
- When back in my email message content, I would CTRL-V the copied contact
objects.

The object would then appear as a .msg attachement. Under Office XP and
2000, I seem to recall that this action would still yeild a .vcf attachment.
Do you have any ideas on this? I sort of caught a MS KB on this at:

I am still reading this. Thank you.

I've never seen any "paste" function in any version of Outlook that would generate a .vcf file attachment.

Hi There,

I am finding that Outlook 2003 pastes a vcard as a .msg as opposed to the
old way as a .vcf. do you have any advice on why that is so and how to
remediate it back to the "good ole fashioned way"? Thank you.
