The vCard feature in Outlook is a great way to store and share important information with others. You can use the vCard feature to store contact information for people you know, or to store contact information for companies you work for. You can also use the vCard feature to store contact information for people who you want to meet. To use the vCard feature in Outlook, first open Outlook and click on the menu item called “Tools.” Then click on the “Vcard” tab. On the Vcard tab, you will see a list of all of your contacts. In this list, you will see all of your friends and family members. You can select one of these people to include in your vCard file. Next, you will need to create a new vCard file. To do this, click on the “New” button on the Vcard tab and enter a name for your new vCard file. For example, if you are creating a new vCard file called “MyFriend1,” then enter “MyFriend1” into the text field at the top of the screen. Next, you will need to add some data into your new vCard file. In this example, we are going to add some data about our friend MyFriend1. We will add his name, his address, and his phone number into our new vCard file. We also want to include some other information about our friend MyFriend1 such as his favorite food or movie! We will add these details into our new Vcard file later on when we create our first email message using the Vcard feature in Outlook! Now that we have created our new Vcard file, we can start using it! To use our newly created Vcard file in Outlook, we first need to open it up and paste its contents into an email message. We can do this by clicking on the “Edit” button at the bottom of the screen and then clicking
A vCard is a virtual business card that you can attach to emails in Outlook (or elsewhere) and send digitally. Here’s how to create a vCard, send one, or import one in both Outlook and Gmail.
How to Create a vCard File in Outlook
In Outlook, click the “Contacts” icon to get started.
Click File > New Entry to create a new contact.
Select “New Contact” and then click the “OK” button.
Add the information you want to share in the vCard. Remember that this information will be included in each email you attach it to, so it’s best to avoid personal information unless the contact doesn’t mind others seeing it. Once done, click “Save & Close.”
How to Send a vCard File in Outlook
Open a new email and address it to whoever you’re sending the email to.
Click the paperclip icon on the toolbar to attach a file to the email.
From the “Attachments” menu, select Attach Item > Business Card > Other Business Cards.
Choose the vCard you want to import and click “OK.”
How to Import a vCard File From an Outlook Email
To import a vCard file into Outlook, click the arrow at the right side of the vCard and choose “Open.”
Once done, the vCard opens in the “Contacts” menu. To save it, click “Save & Close.”
How to Import a vCard in Gmail
Open the email message and click “Download” on the attached vCard.
Open the file and choose which program you’d like to open it with. Outlook, the first option, allows you to import it directly into your Contacts. Click Outlook and then “OK” to open the file.
Outlook will then open the “Contacts” menu. To save, just click “Save & Close.”
