Outlook 2003 - How to extract contact-pictures

[ehrengruber]

Hi!

I am managing all of my contacts in Outlook 2003, and added pictures
(photos) of each contact. So far okay. Now i want to export my contacts
(as vcards) - no problem, but where are the pictures?

Can anybody help me? Where can i find the pictures? Are they stored in
my .pst file? How can i extract them?

Thanks very much!

Outlook's vCard doesn't support photos.

my .pst file? How can i extract them?

There are other posts in the Outlook newsgroups about where they're stored,
but I don't recall what those other posts say. Google Groups can find them
for you.

They're in the Attachments collection on each item stored in the .pst file.
