Re: [NTLK] vCard importation

But, in names when you click "Add" you can hit custom and add custom
fields, and these fields are then available to all names.

Unless I'm not understanding something.

I might take a look at the code for ICVC and see what might be done... I
think the painful part for the user would be typing in the exact header
tag from the vcard into the newton ie:

vCard field: X-AIM;type=HOME; NewtonField: AIM Home
vCard field: NOTE: NewtonField: Notes

or something odd like that.
