Hyperlinks - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

This may be a silly question but I thought I would ask anyway as I have been pleasantly surprised by you guys before.
Is it possible to create bookmarks / hyperlinks that enable jumping from the Task list to either Pocket Word or Notes?
I use notes to record daily events (meeting notes, details of phone calls etc...) and then create Tasks from these notes. It would be useful to jump via hyperlink between Task entries and Notes / Pocket Word Files?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give

Any way to sort contacts by first name?

I've got myself a new Vario, but I can't seem to get the contacts to sort by first name - is there any way to do this?
Sorry if this is a dumb question! I've been mucking about with it for ages!
Many thanks
Zakkz,
Welcome to the forum :wink:. Please read this introduction.
Here's a couple of links on your question.

yes it is possible,
even different ways to get this:
you can use a little freeware application 'File As First Last" that will be included in the default contacts applications. It allows you to save the contact by "firstname lastname" 'or even by company etc. The application can be found on pocketpcfreewares.com: http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=828
you could also change the contact settings on your desktop...within the Outlook contact, you can change the setting 'save contact as', there you can chose to use "firstname lastname"
yet another way to solve this problem is to use another application for your contacts. Pocket Informant is really very good! there you can easily chose to sort the contacts by "firstname lastname"...you can also chose to see the contact pictures in the list of contacts, which is really great I think!
and you've got many many other options and settings to change the calendar/contacts/tasks views...also a really great search function within Pocket Informant...try it for yourself...
CIAO!

Wizard-outlook advanced questions

Hi
I am thinking about buying the Wizard (qtek 9100) (or the coming model Hermes) but before I do I need to have two answers.
I use a organizational system in outlook from windows press and without certain functions the wizard would be useless with my system.
Is it possible to adjust Wizard to show and group objects in the task list as "Categories" (that I create myself):?:
(In the same way as "due date" and so forth. Is categories an option in the wizard as it for example NOT is with Nokia mobiles.)
The second question is if it is possible so synchorize subfolders (in personal folders) in outlook with the wizard :?:
Danne
For Tasks, you can filter by category, but you cannot sort them by category. In other words, you can have Tasks show you what are in individual categories, one category at a time.
Yes, you can sync subfolders with Outlook. You can configure exactly which folders you'd like to sync using ActiveSync.
Thanks, but...?
Hi,
Sorry that my response took so long, I was out on a spontaneous party
Thanks for the answers :!:
However I have some uncertainties concerning my first question about grouping by categories and would be grateful if you took the time to see my questions.
:?: Actually it is not even possible to SORT by categories in outlook, only "grouping" (I am not shure if that is the exact english equivalent word). Do you know it it is possible to GROUP by categories (not only filter)?
:?: And is it possible to see categories as a own "field" (I am not shure here either if that is the exact english eqvivalent word) the way you can see "Subject" and "Due date" in different fields in the task list?
Is it possible to transfer categories that you create yourself in outlook (that has a lot of tasks conncected to them) to wizard, or create the new categories in wizard.
Last question. If the answer is no to the above questions, is it easy (only one or two steps) to filter by categories? In outlook there is many steps to do that.

Nope, you can't group or sort by categories - you can only see tasks in a particular category, one category at a time.
And is it possible to see categories as a own "field" (I am not shure here either if that is the exact english eqvivalent word) the way you can see "Subject" and "Due date" in different fields in the task list?

Nope, you can't display the category field on the task list.

That I'm not sure, but I don't see why not.

Yep, real easy. Tap on Menu, then Filter, then select a category.
If possible, I would borrow a Pocket PC from someone and try it out for yourself. Or I'm sure your mobile phone store will have a reasonable return policy
Thanks!
Thanks for taking the time to answer all my questions! Now I have the information I need to make a decision.
I am going to check the filtering function and see if it suits my needs but I wish it was possible to group them by cateory.
If you know of any other smartmobile were that is possible please let me know.

Pocket Informant contact grouping

Hi, i've been using pocket informant for quite sometime and love it.
however, i don't see any option to group contacts such as friends, family, work etc, like we have in even primitive nokia phones.
am i missing some setting or is there any other way to do it?
does pocket informant support this by any chance? it would be very useful in sending mass messages etc.
would appreciate any help
thanx
I'm using a Beta of PI but this is how I can group contacts:
Menu > Show Contact > Per Company
Mine is in Dutch so it might not be the correct translation
Contact Group

The answer is Yes.
Pocket Informant support grouping in contact.
Every time you insert new contact it should also ask (in detail) for group and also support grouping already exist in outlook (PC and PPC).
Try to search the option.

Just a suggestion, but did you know that WebIS has their own forum for PI? It is located here. You MIGHT want to register there, and drop a message in their forum. They seem pretty active in sorting out users' questions.
Good luck,
-pvs
The easiest way in WM to do this is assign a category for each contact (i.e. business, personal etc.). In PI, you can hit Menu, Category Filter, and choose only the filters you want to see at the time.

Sync Notes Online

first post here.
quick question (and yes - i have searched the archives!!)
is it possible to sync the standard notes application to an online location?
i would rather use this than evernote, just simply because most of the notes i take are from the menu appearing during the telephone call. (or another option would be to take the note in evernote from the call - is it possible to hack this?)

How to search the contents of the phone

What is the best way to search the contents of my phone? I have just migrated from a Palm Centro to the Ozone. On the Palm, I could search for a word, for example, plumber. It would search the notes area of my contacts and in the records of other programs on the phone. How do I do this on the Ozone and with Winmo? Will the phone do this now or do I need a 3rd party app? Probably very simple but I haven't figured out how to do this.
Thanks
David
I got zero response on this one. Here is what I have found. Pocket Informant will search the notes section in your contacts and will pull up the contact that contains the word that you searched for. Inesoft Phone 6 will do this also but appears to be for touchscreen phones only. Maybe this will help someone else.

Total commander searches the entire phone for files. Almost any third party PIM will search messages, email, calender, notes, tasks etc. I use Agenda One
