>Don't take it the wrong way, PLEASE I am neither taking it the wrong way nor offended. I was just curious about the good features of other programs, which, if they make sense, could be added to BitPim. >What I like is the ability to save the phonebook into a separate >file; this way, I can archive each backup independently of another. Not sure how DP does it, but in BitPim, you can export your phonebook into CSV files (and subsequently import them back in). >This way, if I need to restore a number that I had deleted, say a >year from now, I could. In BitPim, you can readily do that by using the Historical Data feature. Roger designed & built that capability into the database schema when he ported the BitPim DB to SQLite. The Historical Data GUI is currently available only to Phonebook/contacts, but can be easily implemented to other areas such as calendar events, SMS, etc. >I did not see any way to save or open a new phonebook within BitPim Not directly. One work-around is to delete all existing contacts and import them from a CSV file previously exported. I understand your need to possibly maintain one phonebook that can support multiple phones. It might be something worth looking into. -Joe Pham ______________________________________________________________________ NetZero Is Giving Away $3,000 A Day!
