I am not successful with this fix.

Here is my example:

Go to this web page: http://www.tpwebdesigns.com/RogersDupont/jrogers.html
Then click on the brown button "Add to Outlook"

It just comes up as script language, rather than opening as an outlook vCard!
Please help me figure out this fix?

Is your PC set to open VCF files in Outlook? Just tried it here using
FireFox 3.51 & Outlook 2010 and it worked fine.

You misspelled Texas in your address. Just an FYI since people may judge
your legal expertise by your adeptness with spelling.

Thanks to EVERYONE! It is working correctly now.
I had to get through to the current Web Host (which is in transfer as I
write this) to set the MIME type settings to read all .vcf files.
So that's what was missing... everyone may have responded only after I had
this fix implemented.
However, big thanks for the mispelling. Sometimes I don't get the spell
check done (from copy) until it's actually ready to be implemented for all
viewers. Thanks for letting me know!

Change your Windows file type associations to open VCF files with Outlook.
