screen. All the ShortCuts are available in any of your phone applications
and are backed up on your computer when you perform a HotSync
operation.

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
