    Hi Chris,

    I was importing contacts into Doogie and I noticed a problem. The program I am using to export them can only export the contact as a vcf file. When I import a vcf file into Doogie, the name shows up like this Doe/ John. I have no idea where the slash comes in. When I add another contact vcf file, somehow Doogie imports information from the first contact. I have no idea how that happened. I also tried adding another contact and it accumulates information from other contacts. I know it is a bug or bugs. I looked at these files with another email client or contact list and there is no accumulation of information from other contacts. Thanks. Scot

    Thanks for the bug report. Contact VCF accumulation of information will be fixed for the next update. 2.3.1.0

    The name "Doe / John" is very odd. doogiePIM doesn't add any "/" to the FileAs field, so try opening the VCF in Notepad and look at that field.

    Yes I know adding the slash was weird. I had to go back in and change the default and the slash went away but it should not show up anyway.

    Hi Chris,
    I took a look at one of the vcf files with Notepad. It did contain a \. I notified the company that their export function has a bug in it. Good catch!
