[QUOTE="durango, post: 1648442, member: 98789"] I know that you are getting tired of discussing this subject with me. But you of all people should know that with Aggies, you gotta draw pictures. I just spent about 3 hours entering all the names/phone numbers into my new iPhone (since I couldn't transfer them from my old flip-top), so I really don't want to screw things up at this point. So let me take an example of my data, and then ask you to please describe what my merged file of Contacts would then look like. On my iPhone, I used the All Contacts screen to enter my data. I kept the data to a minimum, since I am only going to use this list to make phone calls. For example, here is a typical entry: First/Last Name: John Oliver Company: Harley Repair Shop in Drasco Home: (501) 729-1234; Mobile (501) 834-9876 Now, the Contacts on my iMac (transferred from my Win 7 PC a couple of years ago) looks something like this. It appears on the All Contacts screen under the heading All on My Mac. I only use this Contacts list for emailing. Name: John Oliver Phone: (missing for most entries) Work: [email]joliver@loa.com[/email] Note: John is one of the best Harley mechanics. His wife's name is Patty. On my PC, this Contacts list includes other fields (e.g., addresses), but I chose not to export all the fields to my Mac. So what is my merged file going to look like for my friend John? Thanks again........... [/QUOTE]
