Sometimes you might need to use the data of your phonebook in a different application (ex: Word, Excel, Palm Desktop, Eudora, Outlook, etc). SIM Manager offers several ways to do that.
1. The contacts can be selected (note that you can select multiple contacts, as shown in the picture below) and copied to the clipboard, then pasted into the other application.
When pasted into the other program, the contacts will appear as a list, with one item on each line. The name of the contact is separated from the number by a semicolon ';' (as shown in the picture below).
2. You can also transfer contacts into SIM Manager, by copying them to the clipboard and pasting them to one of SIM Manager's phonebooks. Note that the contacts will only be processed if they were written in a special format - one contact per line, the name is separated from the number with a semicolon - ';' (as shown in the picture above).
3. SIM Manager can also interact with other applications via CSV files. A CSV can help you synchronize the address book of your mail client (ex: Outlook, or Eudora) with the address book of your organizer (ex: Palm Desktop) and with your SIM card. For details, see saving a phonebook to a file.
