The task was: trasnfer contacts from Outlook 2010 to iPad without direct
connection nor iCloud nor any kind of connection, using just the MAIL
I followed these steps:
<http://www.technipages.com/outlook-2010-export-all-contacts-to-vcard-
files.html> or <http://goo.gl/4B5fZ>
to save all contacts into many vcf files
then I used command prompt to join all of them:
COPY *.vcf all.vcf
Last I send a mail (with all.vcf as attachment) to the iPad
got it on the device, I tapped the attachment and imported all 171 contatcs
into Contacts folder
Well done, you'd say, but... BUT in all contacts I have a field Notes
filled with rubbish, i.e.:
X-MS-OL-DESIGN;CHARSET=utf-8:<card
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/outlook/12/electronicbusinesscar
ds" ver="1.0" layout="left" bgcolor="ffffff"><img xmlns="" align="fit"
area="16" use="cardpicture"/><fld xmlns="" prop="name" align="left"
dir="ltr" style="b" color="000000" size="10"/><fld xmlns="" prop="org"

size="8"/><fld xmlns="" prop="blank" size="8"/><fld xmlns="" prop="blank"
size="8"/><fld xmlns="" prop="blank" size="8"/></card>
is there any trick to remove the a.m.?
using notepad++ I can easily delete lines beginning with "X_MS_OL..." but
photos are stored in multi-lines, i.e.:
PHOTO;TYPE=JPEG;ENCODING=BASE64:
/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQEAYABgAAD/2wBDAAgGBgcGBQgHBwcJCQgKDBQNDAsLDBkSEw8UHRof
Hh0aHBwgJC4nICIsIxwcKDcpLDAxNDQ0Hyc5PTgyPC4zNDL/2wBDAQkJCQwLDBgNDRgyIRwh

etc etc
and this is beyound my capabilities.
Any help is appreciated
