Saving Microsoft Office vCards to Entourage address book

Recently I am having trouble saving vCards that I email
from a Microsoft Office computer to the Entourage Address
Book of my iMac computer. When I click open (in
Entourage) the email containing the vCard, my Apple OS
9/10 address book opens. I can save the contact
information into OS address book, but can not get it into
Entourage. Is there a way to set Entourage as the default
address book for purposes of saving contact information
sent via emailed vCArds? Is there some other problem?
Thanks, JD

Just drag into Entourage.

It sounds like your preferences are not set correctly. Previously, you set
in System Preferences: Internet:E-mail.tab.

The preference to set the default email application in Panther is no longer
in System Preferences. Apple now requires you to make this setting in Safari
or Mail preferences.

There are two freeware applications you can use to set preferences:

IC-Switch (has an easy interface)

More Internet
