Yes, you want the  "_send" scheme.

The exchange library is fairly straightforward -- you could do the main coding 
in a day, but you might not get it fully debugged.

I've never implemented a transport myself.

Thanks Doug.

I have had a brief look at the docs, and I think that you are on
the right lines here. I have to register for the "_send" scheme,
right? The docs talk mainly about exchange libraries, but say that
apps can register too, with certain restrictions. What I would
really like to know is the amount of work involved here.

Currently, my app can receive vCards that are beamed at it. When a
particular form is active, it registers as the default handler. It
then picks up the data, and uses it to fill in a customer record.
I would like to extend this feature, so that the user can send a
contact, or perhaps a whole category, from the Contacts app.

This feature would be nice to have, but it is not critical. I know
very little about the Exchange Manager. Indeed this is my only
exposure to it. I would say that if I can accomplish it within my
existing app, and it only takes me a day or so, then I am up for it.
But creating a new exchange library is probably too much work.

So could you advise me here?
