The contact form in Microsoft Outlook has scores for fields for date entry. Some of these fields are applicable, such as name, phone number, etc. However many of the fields are for information that doesn't necessarily apply to us, examples are Assistant's name, Department, etc. To find the complete list of fields click on contacts, then click on View on the tool bar, then Current View, Customize Current View, Fields. This will show you the list of all the fields. Next see which of these fields also appear on a contact form on your pocket pc. Then, regardless of the name simply assign a particular field to whatever you want it to be. For example, the field "Company" appears both on the desktop outlook and the pocket pc contact form. I renamed this field "tuning date", and in it I record the date of the last tuning. There's a field called "Job Title", I renamed it "next tuning" and use it to record the date of their next tuning. You can also select which fields appear when you open up the contact folder, and then you can sort by ascending or descending dates. Hope this helps.

I have used a program called Maximizer for about 10 years now, and had everything nicely set up. I'm changing because I'd like to sync with my pocket pc. I'm looking for tips on how to have your tuning dates scheduled etc. Thanks. Paul Tizzard -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
