Creating objects in the Object Editor

If Microsoft Outlook is not installed on your computer, you may use the Object Editor to create objects – messages, notes, and cards. Note that objects created in the Object Editor are not saved as objects but as files. You can then transfer these files as you would any file in the Bluetooth Neighborhood (cf. “File transfer”).

  1. To open the Object Editor: Click Start, point to Programs, point to Bluetooth Software Suite …, and click Object Editor:
