Default Grouping Contacts

I created a "team" Contact. Now I want to insert the contact info for each
member of the team. I also want to share this with all team members. Any one?

Please try to post your question more clearly. Your post makes no sense. How
could any of us know what you might mean my "team?" Pretend we can't read
minds.

Default Grouping Contacts

I have multiple contacts that I want to group together because we are all
part of one team. I want to then share all the contact information (not just
name and email) with all those in the group/team.

I know how to send one contact as a vCard but not how to send multiple
contacts that are grouped together. We all use Outlook Exchange but
different Exchange servers.

Default Grouping Contacts

The only way to send an entire group of Contacts would be to put them in an
Outlook Data File.

Create one contact entry for each team member and assign to them a category
that represents the team. Then when you group your contacts by category,
all of the team members will be grouped together.

Alternatively, create a second contact folder and add your team member
contact records to that folder and share that folder. Just how you would do
that, though, depends on what backend you're using with Outlook (Exchange,
for example).

We're all on Exchange but different Exchange servers.

I don't know of any way to share data across Exchange servers without
additional software.
