Outlook simply doesn't support attachments in vCards. Are you trying to send contact information to someone else using Outlook? If so, create a new message in rich-text format, make sure the recipient address is set for rich-text, and insert the desired contact with the Insert | Item command.

Yes, that's what I said. And I offered an alternative method of sending an actual Outlook contact, rather than a vCard. Was there something about either that you didn't understand?
