VCF/ASC/CSV help and information

VCF Dialog - Windows 9x; Outlook Express 5.5
Double clicking on either the Client Name or Job Number in the DPC will execute a pre configured menu string including the Client or Job string with the file extension of VCF. The process after this is handled by your default email or address book client

To create ASCII VCF/CSV files, export your address book information from outlook express or simmilar to C:\Program Files\Kitchen\Database\ (avoid use of @ symbols in Address book names)

Enter the updated filename without the .vcf extension into the DPC dialog by simply entering it where you would double click, and pressing the apply button.

(Microsoft Example) The following is an example included in the extra download named 0.VCF
