MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008Saving a vcard - loses the notes
What do I have to do to ensure that the notes are saved along with the other contact information when I save a vcard. The notes are displayed in Outlook 2003 - but thay are not saving.  Signaturewith thanks - Sueton This is a known problem, but unfortunately there is no workaround. If you have applied Office 2003 SP1, the notes will be saved with the .vcf file (you can check that for yourself in Notepad), but Outlook 2003 will not display or save them when you open the .vcf file.

For some reason the notes field is not mapping correctly how do we find the mapping of the Notes field in Outlook and ensure that it is mapping to the right field, if its not mapping the right field what would be the solution? (for the notes field as well as for any other field) Thanks in Advance Any suggestions on getting anniversary dates to appear if you can't change the font? > For some reason the notes field is not mapping correctly > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Thanks in Advance I noticed that this is an old thread, but I ran into this issue. Your suggestion worked, opened the attached vcard sent, changed the font and then save/close. Although after I saved it, it went back to the original font style that it was originally in. But, your suggestion worked, so that's all that matters =) > try this : > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > > contact information when I save a vcard.
