The Notes tab is a simple note pad where you can take notes about your contact. What you enter here will be shown in the Notes box of each contact, directly below their name.

If you synchronize your TntMPD database with your Outlook and/or Palm Pilot, these notes will go to the notes section of each contact on both of those systems.

You can only see the first few lines of your notes from the contact view (without selecting the Notes tab), so if you have very critical information you want to view, be sure it is in the first two or three lines of the note.

The notes field is effectively unlimited in terms of space; currently you can enter up to 2GB of notes.

If you synchronize some of your contacts with Outlook, you could run into space issues as the Notes field would go into Outlook as well.

Instead of using the Notes area to record information you get on a phone call or appointment, record these notes in the Description field when logging history.

TntMPD Sync Warning

If you use TntSync to keep two TntMPD databases synchronized (such as one on your laptop and one used by your spouse), you could run into conflicts if both you and your spouse updated the Notes field. TntMPD cannot synchronize one field when both databases have been updated independently.

Tip: Notes Tab

Put Notes in the Notes Tab that are not conversation specific. Things like their interests, plans, children's education,etc. These are items you learn from them during phone calls and appointments.

Do not record conversation-specific things, or when you called or visited them. Use the History for that.
