Deciding which copy method to use
The copy method you choose depends on what you want
to do. (See page 198 for a description of each.)
The Linked copy method
Use the linked copy method when you want to have
identical copies of a single contact in several different
folders so the contacts are easier to find and organize.
A linked copy remains linked to the entry it was copied
from. When you change one of the properties of the
contact (either in the original or the copy), Personal Call
Manager automatically updates the original contact and
all of its copies. This ensures that all of your copies of the
contact are updated.
Note: When you delete a linked copy of a contact, other
linked copies are not affected.
For information, refer to
Using the linked copy method
on page 200.
The Template copy method
When you create a template copy, Personal Call Manager
does not link the new contact to the original contact.
The most common use of the template copy feature is to
create a new contact that is similar, but not identical to,
an existing contact. For example, a new person joins a
company you deal with. The address and telephone
number of the new contact is the same as it was for the
old one, but the name is different.
For information, refer to

method
