I have exported contacts from a Lotus Notes address book as vcards with a
file extension of .vcf. I am attempting to import the file into Outlook and
it successfully imports the first contact but not the rest. I have opened
the file in notepad and confirmed there are multiple contact names in the
.vcf file.

The import works beautifully except that it only brings in the first
contact.

Any ideas?

The Outlook import wizard does not support multiple contacts within a single
VCF file. You'll need a 3rd party program of which there are a number
available (just do a Google search)

For your convenience, one such option can be found here (not related to us -
