Hello,

When I forward a contact from Outlook 2003 to a computer using Outlook 2007,
they receive the contact as an email instead of a contact. In Outlook 2003
the attachements are shown as contacts but when they arrive in Outlook 2007
they change to an email.

Can you please help me with this problem. Thank you

PS: I have tried using word as a texte editor in 2003 but I get the same
result.

How are you doing the forwarding, and what email format are you using in
2003? (ie RTF, plain text or HTML....)
 
Hello Gordon,

To forward a contact I higlight the contacts and right click to choose
Forward. I have alos tryed to use insert an element from my email but I get
the same results. I use HTML as an email format in 2003.

Than you

That's why it's not working.
Firstly you need to use Rich Text Format email, and then do New Mail-Attach
Item (click the arrow next to the "Attach" button) and select the contact
from that dialog.

HTH
 
Hello Gordon,

I changed the email format to RTF
Inserted the contact via insert/element but I still receive the contacts as
an email

Do you have any other idea of what could be causing this problem?

Thank you again
