How do I view the members of a Contacts folder on my Blackberry? (link)

On your Blackberry, if you just want to see the members of a particular folder and not all of your Contacts:


1. In the Address Book > Click on the Blackberry button > Choose "Filter" from the list

2. You should see the Contacts Folder names you've created.

3. If you select to filter on that folder, you will see only the names in that folder.

4. To undo a filter and see all of your Contacts, repeat the process but uncheck the box in front of the folder name.

Is there a way to view the department in address books? (link)

When searching the Global Address List (GAL), click on the Advanced Find link. This allows you to enter search criteria in one or more fields including Department and Title.  

Note that the search has to match starting with the first word. Searching on "Library" in the Department field does not work because the department name is "University Library".

This advanced find capability is not available for personal contact lists/address books. With these, though, in your Contacts view you can display the Department column and sort by that.

Inking in PowerPoint 2007's Presenter View to Display Results on the Projector (Problem: How to stop slides from advancing when inking during a presentation) (link)

On PowerPoint 2007, Presenter View is an option under the Slide Show menu. Check the "Use Presenter View" box to enable it.

Presenter View expects your computer to be connected to a projector (or external monitor) where the projector is enabled as an extended desktop. This mode doesn't work if the external display mirrors the laptop display. When giving a presentation, the laptop/tablet's screen shows a small window of the slide content, navigation controls, and notes. The external or projected screen shows the full slide without the notes or navigation.

Enabled in PowerPoint 2007 is a button to ink on the current slide and have the results displayed on the external projector. However, when I tried this it kept advancing to the next slide after inking a stroke. I finally figured out how to work around this problem - select all the slides under "Animations", and disable "On Mouse Click" under "Advance Slide." Of course you can no longer click to advance, but that's not relevant when you have the navigation controls of Presenter View. One other hint: I have to click "apply to all slides" after unchecking "advance on mouse click" in order to get it to stop.

Unfortunately, Presenter View doesn't show mouse movements, so I would have to actually highlight the thing I'm referring to or draw a line to it or something.
