As elsewhere reported, you can select text from a meeting summary, but you can't do it from a contact (i.e. the stuff in the window to the right of the contact list). You can only select the whole contact at a time (and I'm not sure if you yet fixed it to select the note as well when you copy a contact).

Should be an easy one to fix, since you allow cut/paste elsewhere.

This view is more complex then regular text as it may contain graphical elements and hyperlinks. However it is possible to copy whole meeting (just select it in the list and do Copy command on it), and then you can paste it as a text wherever you want.

You said "whole meetings" but I assume you meant "contacts". Yes, I know I can do that, although I'm not sure the Notes field is copied as well.

In any case, many times I need the ability to copy only sections of contact information from place to place (only phone numbers, only first names, only email addresses), and so it would be VERY useful to be able to have the usual copying ability from that contact summary area, as Palm Desktop does.

Is this in the queue as something to add to the product?

So that you don't think all I do is complain, I am *EXTREMELY* happy you came out with this product. Since I don't use the native apps anymore, but only Agendus, it is quite wonderful to be able to add meetings on my PC and have Agendus pick them up in it's own format.
