FaxFinder Fax Client Software Menu Command Definitions

Command Name	Values	Description
Address Book menu commands
Add Contact	--	Brings up the New Contact screen for adding entries to
		client-user’s personal address book. These entries are for
		parties to whom the client-user may want to send faxes.
		The contact info includes the party’s name, their
		organizational affiliation, phone numbers, fax numbers,
		and land address information.
		The contact information goes into these specific fields:
		Name, Organization, Home Number, Work Number, Fax
		Number, Address, City, State/Province, and Postal Code.
		The New Contact screen allows for manual entry of
		contacts into the Address Book. It can also be accessed
		from the FaxFinder Send Fax screen and from Edit
		Add Contact.
Import	--	Brings up the Address Book Import screen. The Import
		command allows you to import entries into your address
		book from a delimited file (e.g., a MS Outlook address
		book exported as a delimited file; the delimiter could be a
		comma, semicolon, colon, or a tab). In most cases, a
		template file is required to map the information from the
		import file into the appropriate fields of the FaxFinder
		Address Book (i.e., into the fields of the New Contact
		screen)
		The FaxFinder Client software includes a template that
		allows entries from one FaxFinder client-user’s Address
		Book to be imported into the Address Book of another
		client user, and a template to import entries from an
		Outlook CSV file. You may also create a custom template
		to map a CSV file to address book entries.
		Template files are accessible by clicking on the
		“Browse” button in the “CSV import field mapping
		template” area .
Export		Allows you to create a delimited file from the FaxFinder
		Address Book for use in applications that can import
		delimited files. The delimiters could be comma,
		semicolon, colon, or tab. The primary use of the Export
		command is to allow an established FaxFinder Address
		Book to be shared with other client users. Export files
		have a .csv extension.
