What's new with Address Master Pro 2.5...
Auto Phone Dialing!
Address Master Pro now supports automatic phone dialing -- provided, of course, that you have a modem connected to your Mac.
Using the phone dialing feature:
Phone dialing is accessed while in the Edit Dialog. Before you start dialing -- and you only need to do this once -- select <Configure Modem> from the <Edit> menu. Select the port that your modem is attached to and select the number of rings to lapse before the modem hangs up. Click on the "Okay" button. Prepare your telephone numbers as they should be dialed: long distance 1-212-555-1212 or 1-(212)-555-1212; local 555-1212. Select the number to be dialed by either clicking on the radio button or clicking anywhere in the adjacent text edit box. Click on the "Dial" button or select <Dial> (Command-Y) from the <Edit> menu. Make sure your modem is turned on. The modem will automatically hang-up after the specified number or rings, or if it detects a busy signal, or when a connection has been made.
Find/Search Feature!
Use the Find/Search feature (located under the <Records> menu) to quickly locate a record containing the search string. Use command-G to locate the next record containing the search string. Address Master Pro will signify that there are no more records containing the search string with a system beep.
Rotary Card Printing!
Address Master Pro now supports printing for Avery Rotary Cards ( style #5385) or similar rotary card sheets.

Other Things:
*******************
<Cut, Copy, Paste>: In the display mode, only <Copy> is available and will copy the currently displayed record information to the clipboard. In the Add/Edit record mode, all three menu items are available and function as one would expect.
<Save As...>: Creates a duplicate file of the open file.
<Export File...>: Creates a text file of the open file.
<Merge Files>: Merges the contents of two Address Master Pro files. Select <Merge Files> from the <File> menu. Select the first file from the first standard file open dialog, select the second file from the next standard file open dialog and then name and save the new file the in the standard file save dialog. A new file containing the contents of the two selected files will be created and displayed.
<Print List>: Prints a 2-column list of all the entries in the open file.
<Print Special..>: Expands the window and offers a selection of special printing formats. Select a printing format from the pop-up menu on the right. Make selections from the list on the left to fill in the printing fields. Click on the <Print> button to print the form.
<Sort>: Sorts list by selected field.
<Font>: Selections of fonts for displaying and printing.
The <Clone> menu item from the <Records> menu makes a duplicate record of the currently selected list item. This is useful when you wish to add an item that is similar to an existing record. For instance: Bob and Tina both work at Rainbow Plastics and have the same address. Add Bob's record, select it in the list and select <Clone> from the menu. When the info dialog appears, simply type Tina's name over Bob's. And Presto! Less typing!
