ACT & OGO

Finally did it! I've developed a reasonably good interface between the OGO
and ACT. It is not true sync nor is it fully seamless. But, it is the best
I can find. Essentially, I've used Intellilink in the ASCII mode and Lotus
Approach (database) as an intermediate step. This is for the Phone Book and
To Dos only. For appointments I do not use the database as an extra step,
but go direct with Intellilink.

This program allows me to download from ACT to the OGO for calls (it
includes the phone numbers in the to do view as with ACT) and to upload new
calls back to ACT, along with any new appointments. For personal to-dos I
have created a distinct contact record in ACT and these are automatically
uploaded back to this contact in ACT from the OGO.

If you plan to use Intellilink for a direct link between ACT and OGO, don't
waste your time. It is virtually useless!

I'll be happy to answer any questions.
