How set default vCard viewer?

[George]

This could be a WindowsXP-pro question or Outlook2002 question, unsure. A
small window popped up entitled "Address Book" and the message was "Address
Book is currently not your default vCard viewer. Would you like to make it
your default vCard viewer? [Yes] [No]

How do you (manually) get to the place in WindowsXP-pro or somewhere else
like in Outlook where you specify the default vCard viewer, I can't find
anywhere. Also, is vCard viewer related to a .vcf file? Thanks

Do you have a Palm Pilot? If you have installed some Palm Software, at times it will make itself the
default viewer for Vcards. If this is the case, do the following:

Use "Open with" on a VCF file and specify OLExpress. Select YES to make it the
default Vcard Viewer.

Here are some helpful articles to answer some of your questions about vcards:
