Full text search of contacts

[dusherwo]

Having migrated from Palm to PPC I am very frustrated by the limited search facilities, especially of contacts but also of notes eg 'The Ark' does not come up if you search for Ark. Can anybody suggest a more powerful full text search tool?

Well, it should come. Are you using the 'Find' app..if then there shouldnt be any problem. Anyway when u search within the contacts app it only searches the first name,last name and designation

Unfortunately, there isn't a all-in-one solution for searching your info on a PPC. The included Find app only looks at file names, not contents. For PIM use, you might want to look at some PIM replacements like Pocket Informant. Some specialised apps exist as well e.g. Contact Breeze. For notes, you might want to look at a Notes replacement like PhatNotes, which can also be integrated into PI.
