importing vcards - Mac Address Book to Filemaker

[Charles Henebry]

I found a way to import vcards into Filemaker that I wanted to share with everyone on the forum. Assuming the user has Microsoft Office, you can easily drag and drop vcards from Apple's Address Book into the Contacts section of Microsoft's Entourage. (Note that you can select and drag more than one vCard at once!) Then Entourage can export those contacts as a tab-delimited file, which can readily be imported into Filemaker.

I mention this because I've spent the past four hours trolling the web looking for a solution - and in the process it became clear to me that lots of others were also looking for a solution.

Best,

Chuck Henebry

Hi Charles,

This question has come up in the past. Do a search for "vCard" in this Forum "Importing & Exporting " and you will get several hits, including this recent one posted in January, with the subject of vcard
