Unhappy

In several of my address book entries I've utilized all the available fields, including the custom ones. The problem comes when I try to actually view information from the last couple fields. I scroll down and can view my data up to about the second to last line. But even though I know there's several more lines to see (and the arrow in the lower right hand corner indicates more is there) when I try to scroll down any further I automatically get forwarded to the next entry on my list. For the life of me I can't figure out why this is happening and why it happens with some longer entries but not others. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?

i've had this happen to me in the past, however, not frequent enough to take a serious look into why or how to get around it.

i'm glad i'm not the only one to notice it though (well, i'm not GLAD that you have a problem ) as now i might learn what the deal is.

I have bump into the problem a couple of times, when I had a note attached to the address entry. The way I worked around this problem was to add a couple of blank lines to the end of the note. Two or three usually did it. You probably can work around this problem by doing the same or by adding a few blank lines to the end of the last custom field.

This happens to me all the time. I end up adding a couple of blank lines to the notes.

I don't know what causes it, though.

Unhappy Me too!

I've run into this too. No idea what causes it. I sure would like to know though.

Talking It happened to me, also

Yes, it happens to me with long entries... Leaving empty lines at the end seems to do the trick. I heard somewhere you could fix the bug adding a "<end>" string at the end of the entry, but it hasn't worked for me.

Thumbs up

Thanks everyone--thought maybe this was just a bug with my unit. It's not a big deal, but annoying nonetheless. I tried adding spaces at the end of my last field and it worked like a charm. Can't believe I didn't think of this myself. Thanks again!
