how to uniencode text for VCard v. 3.0?

[Klaus Major]

Hi all,

as the subject says, I am trying to export addresses to the VCard  
format 3.0.
Lots of german adresses with umlauts etc.!

But whatever I try, I cannot figure out how to encode the strings :-/

I thought that:
put uniencode(fld "vcard","UTF8" into url("binfile:...)
would do the trick, but nada.
Mac "Addressbook" does not want to import them and "TextEdit" does not  
show the umlauts,
although I open the files manually and select "Textencoding: Unicode  
UTF8" in the open dialog.

Any hints are welcome.
I am on a MacMini Intel.


Thanks a lot in advance.
