Communicating With Contacts

When you wish to communicate with one of your Contacts via email or telephone, doogiePIM gives the ability to access the contact information in various ways.

Before attempting to use the communication tools, you must first select a contact. doogiePIM can't know which contact you want until you tell it, by selecting the contact record you're interested in.

To Select A Contact

Select the desired contact from either the list view or the card view so the Contact's details are displayed in the item's information area.

See Card View or List View for more information

or, use the search facility in the Contacts section to locate a contact.
