THE ROLODEX

How Do I...? | EDITING

The Rolodex is an electronic version of the popular address-keeping device of the same name. This is the Rolodex Listing window.

Scrn: Rolodex Listing

Entries are sorted based on either last name or company. The buttons marked Last Name and Company near the top of the window control this sort parameter. Set it to Last Name to sort entries by last names or Company to sort by each person's company.

Click on a letter in the upper section to view entries starting with that letter of the alphabet. If the sorting is by name, then all entries with a last name starting with that letter will be shown. Otherwise, if the sorting is by company, then all entries whose company starts with that letter are displayed.
