CS750/751 Contacts

In another thread, Mark (mark-yahoo@...) posted a link to a zip file he created containing all the world’s contact lists (http://www.foxhollow.ca/DMR/Contacts/ALL-DMR-Contacts.ZIP). I pulled out his list for California and tried it. It imported fine.

So, experimenting and comparing his list to mine, I discovered a few things; which can be summarized by saying that “CSI’s Customer Programming Software (CPS) is a bit picky about importing things.”

I noticed that Mark’s list did not have the sequential “No.” field populated, while mine did. Also, as Bernie found, the CPS apparently does not like to import All Call contacts. Finally, I found by accident that the CPS does not like any formatting in the files. I had originally left a few cells in my modified file with a yellow background highlight, causing the import to fail.

  1. Also- the CPS does not like symbols transferred in from 700 contact/channel lists.
