I use MoreInfo a lot. I just reinstalled it on a MP2k Sandisk CF card using
Paul's ATA support. Under this configuration I found that it wouldn't work
but it did once transferred back to the internal store.
It is a good contact manager and the key information is stored in the same
database that stores the original Date application data. I guess it stores
its linking information and extra fields somewhere else. The key name
information is handled similarly.
I would have appreciated better 12-month and 6-month views really useful for
setting Board meetings ahead a couple of months etc. Otherwise it generates
good contact logs that can be reviewed easily.
For backups, I synchronise with Lotus Organizer and export the information
once a week to Outlook 2k. Just recently, during the import process,
Outlook has started glitching and saying that it can't find a needed
translator (I wonder what's happening?).
HTH
Tony.

Subject: [NTLK] MoreInfo?
I've just downloaded the demo version of MoreInfo 5. This at early blush
seems to be a very complete calendar/to do/contact program. I'm curious if
other users find that MoreInfo is worth the $84 registration price, which
seems much higher than most other Newton software.
One impression I have is that it certainly encourages you to completely move
your address book to your Newton, given that it ties every
event/meeting/etcetera to a person or a company. (with me, this would be a
good thing--I've been lazy about migrating my address book).
Any thoughts on MoreInfo's stability, affect on other programs if any,
overall usefulness, etc.?
Thanks,
Jeff
