We are using Outlook Contacts in a sales environment in our sales managers
office. We have different folders for each sales person, with contact info
for their clients under each. That makes it easy to move clients around
between territories.

We would LIKE each sales person in the field to be able to enter daily sales
information in the data box at the bottom of the page and on a weekly basis
email their vcards back to the office to update the master lists.

In experimenting with this, when we attempt to copy over the emailed Vcard
to the contact folder, we get the message that we will lose the data in the
bottom text field, unless we make a new file. This would leave us with
multiple files and eventually that will be trouble.

Is there any way around this, either through the existing software or from
an add on?

Thanks!
