Introduction
Presentation
of Carnet
Carnet creates
lists of names, addresses and phone numbers, finds the searched information
very quickly, dials numbers, prints address books, labels, envelopes,
cards and mail-merges.
Carnet can handle
very large lists (tens of thousands of records) without slowing down.
To find a record and start to dial usually takes less than a second,
whatever size the list is.
Dialing is
performed through the Macintosh loudspeaker, with a Minitel (Minitel 2
or better), with any Hayes-compatible modem
(including the internal modem in a PowerBook, iMac, G4, etc.), or through
the network with another copy of Carnet.
If the number is busy,
Carnet repeats the dialing automatically. Some modems refuse to redial
the same number several times in a row (blacklisting), Carnet can force
the redial in most cases.
Search can
find a text string in any field ,
or extract all the found records to a new list. Carnet can request a remote
search from another Carnet on the network and search in all open lists
at once.
Categories
make subgrouping records easy and allow an instant selection of a part
of the list.
Carnet is fully
Internet-aware, e-mail addresses and web pages are easily located
and can be activated with a click to send a mail or go to the web page.
Import
and export
of tabulated text
makes exchanging data easy with most applications. Importing is very fast,
nevertheless it can be performed in the background if the imported file
is very large.
The notes field
accepts up to 32,000 characters per record. A lock option avoids unwanted
deletion of data.
The application has
help balloons everywhere, you can activate them in the Help menu
if you want more information on a menu or dialog item.
