How to save and/or export a vcf/Vcard file for one or more of the entries in my address book? 

 I don't want to send MY personal Vcard, I want to make a Vcard out of someone else's entry in my address book.

Alternatively, is there some other way to export the data from an individual entry in the address book? I find options to export all of the listings, but I need to export just one of the entries.

Thanks!

Install MoreFunctionsForAddressBook (how to install), then right-click a contact and 'Send as vCard' or Export/As vCard (vcf).

sfhowes, Thanks for that suggestion! I'll try that extension. Seems like It should be part of the main application, though.
