I create a vcard in outlook, but in the name field, I always get my
email address. How can I get my name in that field? The email address
also shows up in the email field.

Outlook version? You're referring to a saved vCard .vcf file, right?

Outlook version 2002. Yes, I'm referring to a vCard .vcf file that I
get the info from for contacts.

I can't duplicate the problem here. Check the name in the contact record. If the problem persists, open the .vcf file in Notepad and copy and paste the text into your next post here, munging the address of course. Also please quote the earlier messages, so we don't have to go digging to remember what this thread is about.
