MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / October 2004Contacts
When I click on a cvf card and select open, the outlook email application is opened. I would like the outlook contact application to open. How can this be accomplished. This was working before I installed a Nokia PC suite for synching my phone with outlook. I have associated the vcf file type with the outllok program. They're the same application. I assume you mean you want Outlook to open to the Contacts Folder view? Modify the open command for VCF files: "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Outlook.exe" /select outlook:contacts  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > When I click on a cvf card and select open, the outlook > email application is opened.

I have the file association set up as follows: "C:\Program Files\microsoft office\Office\OUTLOOK.EXE" %1 I don't see how I can further edit the open command.

I have the file association set up as follows: "C:\Program Files\microsoft office\Office\OUTLOOK.EXE" %1. How and where do I configure it so the contacts folder view opens when I try to open or save a VCF card. How do I modify the open command as you suggested? > They're the same application. > I assume you mean you want Outlook to open to the Contacts Folder view?
