I cannot recieve my forwarded contacts

if i forward a (office 2003 Outlook) contact from one pc to my out of office pc, i cannot successfully get the information at the destination. if i wish to transfer contact info via email i have to basically copy and paste the contact info details into the email general text window and send it, then at the other end manually enter this info to a new contact i then must create. i hope to resolve this if you have any help i would appreciate it. i have been through all the options i can find without any success. thanks.
