Creating a ShortCut
You can create a ShortCut for any words, letters, or numbers. All ShortCuts you create appear on
the list in the ShortCut Preferences screen. All the ShortCuts are available in any of your handheld
applications and are backed up on your computer when you perform a HotSync operation.
To create a ShortCut:
1. Tap New.
2. On the ShortCut name line, enter the letters you want to use to activate the ShortCut.
3. Tap the ShortCut Text area and enter the text that you want to appear when you type the
ShortCut characters.
Tip: You may want to add a space (space character) after the last word in your ShortCut
text. This way, a space automatically follows the ShortCut text.
4. Hold Option and press Return to finish.
Tip: To use a ShortCut, enter the ShortCut symbol followed by the ShortCut characters.
