You could use it to schedule those visits, and use the log entries for the data.. it also has a quick search feature.

Address book notes
Just a quick question. Is there a limit on the length of the notes that can be put in the Memo field of the Other tab of an entry in the address book? I ask because I use it as a contact manager, and being in pastoral ministry I can use it for keeping records of home visits, particular issues concerning an individual or family, and so on. At present I use separate text files and link to them from one of the web address fields in the address book, but I would like to put it all together, so to speak. How robust is the address book data in other's experience of this fantastic program? Thanks for any thoughts. -- Peter in New Zealand.

Re: Address book notes
Hi Peter, PB Just a quick question. Is there a limit on the length of the PB notes that can be put in the Memo field of the Other tab of an I'm not sure what TB's abilities for this are, but (as a programmer) I wouldn't recommend your plan. That's a lot of text to be sticking into a note, which I (personally) would consider un-searchable. What _might_ be better (_if_ the eMail program must serve, in this way) is to send yourself an eMail for notation...something like: From:PBallantyne To:PBallantyne Subj: Consultations Text: Talked with John Smith about... -OR- Subj: Sermons Text: Gospel of Thomas and other apocryphal Coptic works -OR- Subj: Meetings Text: John Smith raised the issue of the old roof... The eMail has the added benefit of being automatically dated, and you gain the advantages of filters, folders, threading to organize those eMails, say filter by Subj: (vertically, by activities), and use the Virtual Folder feature to search horizontally in the text for particular topics, such as Message Source containing Smith. And use the threading (replies to related eMails) to group closely related activities. -- HTH, David Win][k sp4 TheBat 2.11 PB Just a quick question.
