Adding number from Call History to existing Contacts

hi
I want to add a number from Call History to one of my existing contacts (i.e, add to home telephone of an existing contact)
However, when hold and tap number in Call History, it open a new contact instead of letting us choose an existing contact
Any program that can let us do that
My device is O2 XDA IIi
Thanks
Tuan
There isn't any way around this, though maybe there will be in WM2005 or through a third party program.
It's something that annoys me, too. The way round it is to get it up as a New contact, then copy the number and cancel saving the contact, go to the correct contact and add it that way.
Bit long winded, but other than writing it down by hand or remembering it I don't think there's any other way.
Cheers

Hey Guys..
Simple trick....
Tap and hold the number in the call history
Then select option "Send Text Message"
Then copy/cut that Number and paste in the contacts
Then cancel the message
I hope, this sounds OK

contacts and dialling

Hi,
i have all my contact numbers saved as they are locally ie. in the uk 07xxxxx i've recently went to egypt on holiday and found that i could not dial the numbers directly even though i changed my time zone to "visiting Egypt" under settings ( for some odd reason i assumed that my ppc would be smart enough and change the dialing code automatically) I have to change the number and add +44 to every number i dial. is there a better way of storing and dialing numbers other than going through my contacts adding country codes
thanks in advance
I think Paul from Modaco once wrote an app to update all contacts thuswise automatically; however, I haven't seen the program for a few years, you could try asking him for a copy if you get stuck.

Problem with TEXT MESSAGE

hi everybody,
I have started facing a new kind of a problem with windows ROM 6.1 version. in this version when, if in a contact more than one number is saved and a text message is recieved from any number of that contact, nobody can figureout from which among the two numbers it is from!!! for eXample:
If i receive a message from a contact named DAD having three numbers in that contact namely 1. office number,
2. Airtel mobile number,
3. Vodafone Mobile number
then it is impossible to enquire that from which among the three numbers did actually the message came!
Is there any way of removing the CHATBOX type of view of 6.1 version ROM and restoring it to the initial and original type of view? if anybody knows the way, plz reply.
Thanks

when i try to find a word in a sms and the filter does not find it

Multiple mobile numbers

How can you add more mobile numbers in your contact? Because you have only one space for a mobile number for each contact. This makes it difficult to send a text message to another mobile number from the same contact.
I think it would require some kind of outlook editor. I don't think its possible to see more than one mobile number per contact, so if you want to use the automatic number fill-in function (or whatever it's called) you probably have to make another entry in your phone book. Not ideal but I don't have that many contact with two mobile phone (and using them). Cheers
Even if you do manage to add more mobile numbers for the same contact, the second one won't sync with outlook on your PC and you won't be able to keep backups. Create a second listing for the same contact and differentiate it with a number or some other way, i.e. John Smith - John Smith 2.

change default number

Hi
how can I change default number for a contact?
for example tochflo only use mobile number to send sms and I want to use work number as default
tnx
no solution?
I do remember that when adding contacts to the 15 under People tab, you were able to select which number to display as the primary number. Maybe remove the contact, then re-add them?

this is just for people you add in the people tab
what about the others?
If you select a contact that is not in your contacts tab, it gives you all numbers to choose from. There is no default number.
I get it now. Start -> all programs -> contacts.
In there, it lists a number to go with the contact.
You wish to change this number yes?

I want to change the number that touchflo sms manager or whatever it is uses to send sms.
Not sure I fully understand the problem, BUT:
If you go to the Message tab, and start a new message, as you type in the Contact's name you can choose whichever number you have stored for them as the number to use. I just sent myself a test text, to my landline, using this method - it was pretty easy, and didn't require me to change any details about myself.
Hope this helps.
