Default Printing/Sending Contact Info

This may be 2 different questions. I want to send a v-Card (perhaps mine or
another Contact's) to somebody else. Is there a way to control what fields
are included. Some of that info is useful to me but not to others. Some
info may actually be more personal than I want to distribute (e.g.,
birthdays, anniversaries, wife's name) . And I probably don't want the
free-form information I entered about the contact (I don't know the name of
that field) to print, either.

Same question as to printing the Contact's info.

Default Printing/Sending Contact Info

There are two ways to control the information sent:

1) remove unwanted information before you use the File | Save As command to create a .vcf file or the Forward as vCard command

2) Save the contact as a .vcf file and edit that file manually in Notepad.

#1 applies to printing. The second method for printing is to perform a Word mail merge and pick which fields to show.
