I am trying to explore the vpim gem…

Using that i am trying to generate Vcard…Now I am able to generate  
vcard also i am able to send that vcard through mail.

If i try to open that vcard through thunderbird, all the fields  
getting stored in address book except mobile number, Here ia m send the  
code for adding mobile number into vcard…

if @bizcard\_label.mobile\_number!=""  
flag=1  
maker.add\_tel(@bizcard\_label.mobile\_number.to\_s) do |mob|  
mob.location=‘cell’  
mob.preferred = true  
end  
end

Above code mobile number will come as 10 digit number.

```
 Is my approach correct? or am i doing anything wrong?

```

regards  
Selva
