Procedure 107
Creating an Excel file for the central database
Step Action
1 Open MS Office Excel
2 Add three columns as shown in the following figure.
ATTENTION
It is important to use the column headers DBID, Name, and
Extension. Also, take note that the first column contains sequence
numbers and each number must be unique.
3 Add as many rows as entries.
Note: If the number of entries in the spreadsheet is small
(about 10), then you can see some of the entries more than
once on the handset display while scrolling the list. This is
normal.
4 Change the name of the Excel sheet from Sheet1 to directory.
5 Save the database, for example as cda_names.xls .
