After trying to use Alarming Events and QuickDex to keep track of calls to
colleagues and possible funding sources, I have decided I need a contact
management program.  My needs are a program to remind me to follow up on
calls, to call back if no answer is received, to keep notes of calls, to
dial quickly and to link to Word for writing letters.  Alarming Events does
not allow notes to get very large, and is not linked to my dialing program
Quickdex.  Quickdex is good for notes and dialing, but is not linked to
remind me when to call. 

I have looked at contact management software for sales people.  The one I
tried is Act!  It does what I want although the formats are kind of rigid. 
The trouble is that I cannot afford $270 for this purpose.  Can anyone
recommend a less expensive contact management package?
