New Project - vcfSplit

vcfSplit is a simple WinForms application written originally in .NET 1.1 and recently upgraded to .NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2008. Basically what it does is to prompt for an input file and an output directory. (The input file should be a .vcf file containing multiple vCards) It will then create a .vcf file for each vCard in the output directory.

I wrote this orginally because some of the contact management apps I was using didn’t handle exports very well. In general they would create one big vCard file with all my contacts in it, and I wanted them at a more granular level. This app was the result.

If you’d like a copy of the source code, you can access the SVN reposity at http://andlewis.com/svn/vcfSplit/

Welcome to sourcecodr.com, a website run by me, Andrew Lewis. This is where I’ll be posting software and code that I have written, mostly in C#. I intend to post links to SVN repositories if you want to check out some of the projects yourself. I appreciate your feedback, and the fact that you’re even here. Cheers!
