Hello, I just purchased DIGA! today. I was especially impressed by its user definable terminal emulation capability, which I plan on using. Thanks for the file that you put here on how to use it. I can't seem to get the phone book to work, though which is a bit of a disappointment. When I try to create a new phone book called "Data Services," the file is created, but I can't add or save to it. When I use "Phonebook," the disks spin during add and save, but going back into it later shows nothing! Am I doing something wrong. (P.S. I read the note about Quick-B and }second the mo}tion to add it!) David

I think you have to specify a complete path in the bottom of the phonebook requester — that's a vague memory… it does work, tho. –Ben–

Thanks Ben. I think that the problem was lack of space on the DIGA! disk itself. The requester does have a space for path at the top of the phonebook requeste but, if I continue to have trouble, I'll try it. It's working for me now that I have relocated Phonebook to another disk. David

The "create phonebook" hasen't caused problems in the past. This is definitely a call for Tech Support (213) 392 9972. Did you try "change PhoneBook" after you created it …. and you MUST do a SAVE in the card you have edited, Thanks.

Actually, I tried SAVE and ADD and the disks would not even spin. I think that the problem was one of being out of disk space, but no error message was ever given. I moved the Phonebooks directory to another disk and the Phonebook file works fine. I haven't tried to create a new one since that time (for lack of same), but I'll call if I have any more trouble. Thanks, David
