Hi,
Is there any simple way of attaching/inserting a vcard after you have
started writing an email? [the same as 'Insert item' in outlook].

Going to the address book and then choosing Contact>Forward as Vcard really
clunky (also, why don't they have this as a menu option if you right click a
contact???]

thanks

Get my (free) script called, of all things, "Attach vCard X" at

MacScripter.net <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

It comes with a built-in option-command-V keyboard shortcut, but you can
change it to any other available shortcut you want by the methods described
at Entourage Help/"Script menu"/About the script menu.

You can also set it up from a schedule to run every minute and it will add
(just one!) vCard automatically as you type a new message.

Hi Paul
Thanks and I tried this, but I think it only attachs your own vCard,

What I am trying to do is the option of attaching someone else's vcard when
I am forwarding contact details. I am getting married, so my fiance and I
are swapping contact details of friends between each other...

thanks

Just drag them from the address book listing to an open draft message
window.
