Not quite sure where to post this...

I'm looking for an app that will give me a searchable list of names, numbers and car registrations, and that will also allow me to dial the number by clicking a link of some sort.

I thought maybe could I do it in PIE

I can export my data into almost any format, so I could create HTML files with the name being a link to the phone number.

Can I search an HTML file in PIE?

Is there a way to dial a number by clicking a link in PIE?

I'm using a C500 if it makes any difference

Smartphone Find looks neat, but not quite what I'm looking for with this.

I have a "second phone book" which contains all the names and numbers etc for all the staff in my office. I want to be able to search that list for a name or a car reg number, and then (if it finds a match) to be able to call that person by clicking a button/link

I don't want to add all those names to my Contacts, so I don't think Find will do it - unless you can search inside files???

I found the way to dial a number from PIE, after hours spent trying different ways it turned out to be quite simple (once you know how):

Fred Blogs {a href="tel:+447788112233"}Mobile{/a}|{a href="tel:+441732112233">Office{/a}|{a href="tel:+441732998877">Home{/a}

[edit]

Ooops, forgot the forum would translate it!

Have replaced the < and > symbols with { and } so that you can see it!
