Finding records

Finding records
Acer s10 lets you find information in several ways:
• All internal applications: Find locates a specified text, starting with the
current application.
NOTE: Find does not search through applications stored in a resident expansion card.
• Date Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad: Use Phone Lookup to display the
Address list screen and add the information from this list to a record.
• Address Book: Enter the first letters of a name in the Look Up line to
immediately scroll to that name.
• Expense: Use Lookup to display the names in your Address Book that have
data in the Company field. You can add these names to a list of attendees
associated with an Expense record. For more information, see"Entering
receipt details" on page 106.
• Mail: Use Lookup to access information in your Address Book.
Finding Address Book records
You can look up Address Book records in two ways:
• Use the scroll button on the front panel of your device
– In the Address list screen, the scroll button moves up or down an entire
screen of records. Holding down the button will accelerate scrolling and
display every third screen.
– In Address view screen, the scroll button moves to the previous or next
address record.
• Type the first few letters of a name in the Look Up line at the bottom of the
Address screen.
The list scrolls to the first entry that begins with that letter. If you write
another letter, the list scrolls to the first entry that begins with those two
letters. For example, writing a “b” scrolls to “Bennet’, and writing ‘br’ scrolls
further to “Bristol”.
