Default Missing Notes in vCards

I sent it to myself with Outlook 2003, but a vCard is a vCard as far as the field holding the notes goes, so how it's created shouldn't matter too much. If you wind up with one that doesn't work, mung the personal information by editing in Notepad and copy it into the text of a reply post.

Thanks Sue. Unfortunately I just tested it again and can't seem to get it to
work. Here's what I did. I created a contact entry and typed information
into the Notes area of the entry. I emailed that vCard to myself. I sent it
from a machine running OL 2000 and received it on a machine using OL 2003
with SP2. When I open the vCard, the information that I typed into the Notes
area is displayed, but when I save the contact entry and then reopen it in my
Contacts, the text in the Notes area disappears. Is that similar to what you
did, and you didn't have a problem with the text in Notes area disappearing
when the contact entry was saved?

I'm using Outlook 2003 with SP-2. When a vCard is sent to me that contains
text in the Notes area of the contact, the text is displayed when I open the
vCard (which I believe SP-1 fixed from an earlier bug), but when the contact
is saved, the information in the Notes area disappears. Other posts on this
issue don't seem to indicate this as an issue. Am I doing something wrong
when I save the vCard? This didn't occur in Outlook 2000 to my knowledge. I
imagine that I can copy and paste the text information into the saved contact
to get around this, but any idea if Microsoft is working on a fix?
