Two phone directory program????

Nov 26, 2005 5 Replies

For years I have used an address book from Day Timers to maintain a 4x6 inch double sided phone book I can carry in my daytimer. In addition to critical phone numbers I carry that are not in my cell phone, I keep license numbers, info on my printers, oil filter data etc, etc. This is an old DOS program and doesn't support my printers anylonger. Now when I print it, the printer loses synchronization of the back side and prints wrong.



Does anyone know of a current program that will print a compact two sided phone directory? Thanks, Allan


Symantec ACT! For Windows has used that format for years. It is a full featured contact management system. I have been using it since the old DOS days.

MS Outlook has done that for years as well.

Yep, these PIMs are a really handy. I prefer Commence as it alllows further customization but they are great for small businessman

barf Microsoft is supreme overkill for the smalll businessman. Microsoft is the ultimate handyman: jack of all, master of none!

Act does handle the task with really nice formatting. However, you have to cut the pages apart and reassemble them in order to get a two sided phone book. The Day Timer book was planned so after printing, you could just fold the whole thing in half and have a booklet with all your phone numbers. Put a staple in the middle and you were good to go.
