Keep two Phone Books open at the same time 100/200LX

Keep two Phone Books open at the same time 100/200LX

To switch from one Phone book file to another you have to wait while the application closes the Phone file and opens the 2nd Phone book. When you want to switch back to the original Phone book you wait through the same process again.

The Phone Book application on the HP 100/200LX is really a variation of the built-in Database application. This means that you can have two Phone Books open at the same time and move between them instantly.

  1. 1. Go into FILER, press (MENU) File Rename, and change the file extension on your second Phone Book file from .PDB to .GDB.
  2. 2. Then press (CTRL) (PHONE) to open your Database application. Press (MENU) File Open. Select the second Phone Book file and press (F10) to load it.
Now, whenever you open up your Database, you'll have your second Phone Book available. You can also directly select a Phone .PDB file in the Database Open File dialogue box.

  1. 1. Press (CTRL) (PHONE) to open your Database application. Press (MENU) File Open, and change "File to Open" to *.PDB.
  2. 2. Tab to Directories to select the directory that contains the second Phone Book file, select the .PDB in the Files box and press (F10) to load it.
