Hi all, I'm looking for a cardfile program. The one that comes with
Windows 3.0 just does not do the kinds of things that I need to do.
The one that comes with Asymetrix's Toolbook (Daybook) does what I want
for the most part but it is incredibly slow AND I have to have toolbook
loaded which is a total pain in tha a** -- it's so slow.
I'm also looking for an intelligent appointment scheduler. i tried
ALMANAC but it doesn't permit me to enter times into the scheduler and
have an alarm associated with the entry. I have a series of regular
appointments that I like to remind myself of and therefore need to have
something that runs under windows that allows me to set dates and times
and have alarms associated with these entries. I would like to use the
form " Every Wednesday at 11:45 do ...." or "Every Tuesday and Thrusday
at 4:45 do ..." and even " the first (second, third, fourth etc) Monday
(...) every month".
Can anyone help??????
Thanks in advance.
Kevin

It sounds as though you want a Windows-based PIM (Personal Information Manager). The most recent issue of PC Magazine reviews four of these. The two that stood out as being the best were Polaris PackRat and IBM Current. I too am interested in this type of software and am now simply trying to decide which of these two programs is more suited to my needs. <=- Hubert
