Inserting Outlook Address file in FP 2002

How do I insert an Outlook Address file ' linked symbol' into my website?
I'm trying to put the outlook address files by people's pictures so that a
website visitor can click on the address file and save it on their own
computer. I've seen it in other sites but can't figure out how to do it.

Hi Steve: Thanks for your response. I'll just pick a law firm (one of
many). Visit www.lanepowell.com and follow the links to "firm", "people" or
attorneys, and look at their biography - at end appears the vcard.

Ah OK.

You make vcard files with Microsoft Outlook.

I don't believe Outlook Express has the capability

Right - and I'm using Outlook, not Outlook Express, so on that point I should
be able to proceed.
But how do I produce the vcard and then put it into the FrontPage file so it
can be published to my website? I tried first by going to a Outlook address
file and trying to drag it onto my Frontpage webpage. It created
non-sensical symbols or letters on the webfile indicating to me that the
transfer was not acceptable. Any ideas?

You need to look for a function to export it to your desktop, then import into FP and link to it.
You should post to the Outlook newsgroup.

Thomas: Thanks for the information. I did export it to my desktop and then
imported it in (at least per my computer) but then I can't see it, so I can't
then pursuing linking to it....
