Creating a Contacts entry
You can create Contacts entries on your communicator, or you can use your desktop software to 
create entries on your computer and then download the entries to your communicator with your 
next HotSync operation.
Many desktop software applications also have data import capabilities that enable you to load 
database files into your Contacts list on your communicator. See the section that begins on page 
34 and the online Help for your desktop software for more information.
