- *** What's New in Contact Browser 5.0 ***
-
- - User Administrator: Users are given access to the databases
- through a new program called the User Admin. Only users
- added through the User Admin can have access to a database.
- Additionally, users can have either Read-Only, or full
- Read-Write access. Users with Read-Only access have full
- access to the data, but cannot make any changes, additions,
- deletions, etc.
-
- - 20 User definable custom fields have been added for greater
- flexibility and customization. Each field can be renamed to have
- it's own unique meaning.
-
- - A "Pick List" feature has been added to each custom field. This
- allows the user to assign a list of pre-defined choices to each
- custom field, eliminating data entry errors for fields that are
- meant to contain finite values.
-
- - Four additional tabs were added to handle the 20 custom fields.
- Each tab can be given a unique name appropriate to the custom
- field's uses.
-
- - Added the custom fields to Sorting, Filtering, Searching, and
- Queries.
-
- - Enhanced the Report Wizard to handle custom fields, option to
- use AND or OR query combinations, and ability to specify BEGINS
- WITH, CONTAINS, or EQUALS for each available field in the
- Report Wizard.
-
- - Added a new E-Mail tab, which can handle an unlimited number of
- e-mail addresses per contact.
-
- - Added an Export Wizard for creating delimited text files of
- contact data.
-
- - Added an Envelope Wizard for printing envelopes.
-
- - An all new Contact Wizard has been added to make data entry of
- contacts easier. The Contact Wizard can be used to create new
- contact records, edit existing contact records, or to create
- new contacts from existing contacts.
-
- - You can now arrange the Tabs as single-row or multi-row.
-
- - Added the ability to sort on column headings (mouse click).
-
- - An option was added to show reminders in the system tray instead
- of the Reminders Dialog, which can be intrusive to the user.
- Showing reminders in the system tray is the default.
-
- - Added an option to have the program minimize to the system tray.
- This saves space on the task bar.
-
- - New List Properties allows users to change the list fonts and
- colors, including an alternating color scheme (check book
- style). The Contact List, Report List, Call History List, and
- Reminders List all include this feature.
-
- - Now supports printing color for contact lists and report lists
- (with an option to turn off color printing for speed).
-
- - Added the ability to change the display font for notes fields.
- Right click on the Notes window to select the font option.
-
- - Rearranged the contact name fields to move the less commonly
- used fields out of the way.
