Central directory
You can create directory entries only with the handset or the central directory (
PC direc-
tory
). There are particular advantages if you create or edit entries in the central direc-
tory:
u
Editing directory entries is easier using a PC.
It is much quicker to enter names using the keyboard. The scroll function makes it
easier to keep track of the entries and you can see at a glance which entries are miss-
ing or out of date.
u
Each new or edited entry is stored centrally in
talk&surf
.
Instead of a time-consuming synchronisation of individual handset directories, you
can transfer the latest version of your directory to any handset you want.
u
The capacity of the central directory is practically unlimited.
Since the central directory is stored in the PC, the capacity is limited only by the avail-
able memory on your PC. Thus you can store a far greater number of telephone
numbers in the central directory than in a handset directory.
u
Import functions reduce the work involved.
Existing directories can be received from a handset. Address files of other programs
or the telephone database of a preceding version of talk&surf 6.0 can be imported
to your PC. All the directory entries are included in the central directory. As a rule,
such entries only need to be checked for their validity.
