Originally published as “Monday Methodology: Transferring Data Between Programs” on 30 Oct 2006.

Often times I am trying to flip from one application to another quickly. Most data entry and transfer between programs I do on my desktop; however, there are times when I prefer to make use of odd moments to do this where I only have my PDA available.

During the times when I am doing my back and forth data movement on my PDA, I re-map one of the buttons on my PDA to be for NoteStudio. (I have one permanently assigned to Bonsai.) This eliminates the extra taps it takes to jump between programs.
