I create vcf files for all my clients. At times, I am required to include their Surname name \ DOB \ Phone number in the org document. Is their any way I can import the data directly from vcf file. ?

As it's a text file you can simply parse all the fields. What's the problem?– Arkadiusz DrabczykCommented Dec 31, 2017 at 12:24

You can use this package to
convert *.vcf into an *.org document. You can install it either by
using package-install or by downloading this
file
and evaluating it manually with eval-buffer. Next run
Mx org-vcard-import. You will be asked for
Source:, just type file here and press Return. You will
be asked for Destination, also type just file and press
Return. Next thing you will be asked for is a path to an
input .vcf file and finally you will be asked for a path to an
output .org file. Output .org file will contain entries in the
following format:
* Name LastName
:PROPERTIES:
:VERSION: 3.0
:N: LastName;Name;;;
:EMAIL: [email protected]
:CELL: (xxx) xxx-xxx
