Hi Andre,
Thanks but as the main challenge was extracting the Google Contacts list, I
went with a manual 'save as CSV' for now.
However, I have given my son the challenge to introduce 'Sempre Alerta' at his
next Cub Scouts meeting! ;-)
Best,
Keith..

Thanks for the responses (Andre & Bill), though export of individual contacts
via vCard is not what I'm trying to achieve.
Looking into it, I'm not sure LiveCode would save much over reverting to the
pre-Google approach of creating a Word mail-merge template that can target the
manually export
Keith,
I'm not familiar with Google Contacts but .csv or vCARD formats are known text
formats. You can easily see what they look like but they are tedious to deal
with.
Is it that you now have the information in Google Contacts and want to export
it into a LC app you are writing? InfoWallet ha
Keith,
You can probably output a vCards file from Google Contacts. I built a
vObject library for LiveCode in 2004, it might help you.
I made it available at http://fon.nu/vobjectlib I was going to share on
RevOnline but I can't find the damn login.
Be Prepared, or as we say here, Sempre Alerta
