{ROLO}
Address Book
Einstein's Address Book can be a replacement for the old Rolodex (R)
cards just about everyone is familiar with. In your Address Book, you
can store your personal and business contact's names, addresses,
telephone numbers and free-form textual information. The Address Book
has powerful features that allow you to find the information you need
quickly, such as multi-field searching, full-text searching, sorting and
filtering.
In addition to your own personal Address Book, Einstein allows your
Systems Administrator to create "Group" Address Books. Group Address
Books are just like your personal Address Book, except they are designed
to be shared by multiple people at the same time. For example, you may
have a Firm Address Book that contains the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of everyone in your office.
When selected, you are presented with the first "card" in your Address
Book. To view a different card, use the PageUp or PageDown keys or
select the Find button to quickly locate a particular entry.
Button Description
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
List Select this button if you'd like to view your Address Book
data in a tabular, or list format. When selected, a listbox
window displays, where you can use the Up and Down arrow keys
to quickly move through the entries in your Address Book.
Find Choose this button to locate a particular card in your Address
Book. When selected, the Find dialogue displays, where you can
type in text you want to locate.
Two types of searches are available from the displayed
dialogue: Indexed and Full-Text.
An indexed search is the faster of the two, since it uses the
current open index file to locate the specified text. If you
are currently sorted by Last Name, the Last Name index is
searched. If you are sorted by Company, the Company index is
searched.
Full-Text searching starts at the current card location, and
checks each card for any instance of the specified text. It
does not matter which field the information is located, even
the free-form textual notes.
Notes Each of your Address Book entries can contain a free-form text
note, where you can type anything you like. When selected,
an editor windows displays any current text, where you can make
any desired changes.
Add Choose this button if you'd like to create a new Address Book
entry. You are prompted with a Yes/No confirmation dialogue
when selected.
Delete Select this button to remove the current Address Book entry.
A Yes/No dialogue box displays to confirm your action.
Note that when you choose to delete an Address Book entry, the
record is merely marked for deletion, and the Status field
is updated to denote the record status. The record is
physically removed when your Systems Administrator runs the
Pack Mailbox routine.
You can recall a deleted entry by choosing the Delete button
while a deleted entry displays. However, once your Systems
Administrator runs the Pack Mailboxes routine, the entry is
deleted forever from the file.
Edit Choose this button to make changes to the currently displayed
entry. When selected, you are placed in the first editing
field, where you can type your changes. Note that while
editing an entry, some buttons are made unavailable until you
save your changes.
Options Select this button to view additional choices available to
you while viewing your Address Book, such as Filtering,
Export, etc.
Quit Choose this button to leave the Address Book and return to
Einstein's Main Menu.

Copy Select this item if you'd like to copy the current Address Book
entry to another user or group on your network. When selected,
you are prompted to type the User or Group name. When
complete, the current entry is copied into the specified user's
Address Book.
Duplicate Choose this item to make a copy of the current Address Book
entry. You are prompted with a Yes/No confirmation dialogue
to confirm your intention.
Export If you need to use your Address Book data in other programs,
such as Lotus 123, dBase, etc., select this item. You can
choose from the displayed output format types, and your
Address Book information will be exported to the specified
filename.
Filter Select this item to "filter out" unwanted entries. A Filter
allows you to specify which entries appear in your Address
Book. For example, you might create a Filter that says:
"Show only those records where the City is 'Houston'" More
detailed help is available by pressing the F1 key while the
Filter Dialogue displays.
Group Choose this item to view a listing of available Group Address
books. To select a new Address Book, simply select it from
the displayed list.
E-Mail If you maintain e-mail addresses in your Address Book, you
can use this item to send a e-mail message to the displayed
entry. When selected, a menu of available e-mail carriers
displays, where you can choose the intended e-mail address.
See your Systems Administrator if you do not know if your
system is set up for remote e-mail communications.
Sort To re-order Einstein's Address Book, choose this option. You
are presented with a menu of available sort fields. Choose
the desired sort field, and your Address Book will be ordered
based on your selection. Any Find command using the current
index will use this sort order for locating text.
{ROLOFIND}
Search Address Book
Use Einstein's Find Button to quickly locate a particular record in your
Address Book file.
When selected you are presented with a data entry box, where you can
type the text you want to locate. You can choose between two different
sort types: Indexed and Full Text.
Current Index
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
Your Address Book always uses an open index file to quickly sort and
search records. This index is ordered in your choice of sort orders,
such as Last Name, First Name, Company, etc.
When you perform a search using the Current Index, you are telling
Einstein to search the index when locating a record. Therefore, if your
Address Book is currently sorted by Last Name, the Last Name index will
be searched for the text you type in the Find Dialogue.
To choose a different index to search, change your Sort Order by pressing
the <Alt>+<S> keys while viewing your Address Book data, or by choosing
the appropriate option from the Options menu.

▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
If you do not want to search the current open index for information in
your Address Book, you can tell Einstein to perform a "Full Text" search
by selecting this option.
A Full Text search differs from an indexed search in that it browses the
data in your Address Book sequentially. When a Full Text search is
performed, Einstein goes up to the top of the data, looks at each record
in the database, then searches all fields in the record for the text you
supply in the search field. Since the open index is not used to locate
the text, the text for which you are searching can be located in any
field.
Although significantly slower than indexed searching, Full Text searching
can be useful to locate information typed in the Notes field, or in
fields that cannot be used as a primary sort criteria.
{GETLINE}

you have completed the task at hand and are ready to proceed.

to users not currently logged in.
By default, your network allows up to two messages to be stored on a
workstation at a time. This means if you send a message to a user that
has not cleared out two previous messages, your message will be lost.
You are notified if a message cannot be sent to a particular user.
Usually, if you cannot send a line message to a user, this indicates
he is away from his workstation.

records that match your Filter are printed or exported.
When selected, a listing of available database fields and a Filter editor
window displays. To begin, simply select a field you'd like to include
in the Filter command or type the name of the field directly into the
Filter editor window. Case is unimportant: Fields can be in either
upper or lower case text.
After you have decided which field(s) to include in the Filter, you need
to specify the qualifying text. For instance, the scenario above can
be described as: CITY = "Houston"
You can create a multi-field Filter by using the .AND. and/or .OR.
qualifier. For example, the following is a valid multi-field Filter:
CITY = "Houston" .AND. INDUSTRY = "Software". Note the use of the
periods to separate the commands. These are required.
NOTE: Creating complex Filters can degredate the performance of the
Address Book, or make it appear as if the Address Book contains no data.
Create a simpler Filter, erase the Filter in effect or leave the Address
Book and return to clear the Filter and display all records.
