I'm trying to set up my Visor Platinum for writing orders. I use Ricardo Ettore's excellent text-expansion utility, TypeIt4Me, on my Mac, with hundreds of abbreviations for item descriptions and customer names. It's an amazing time-saver. PalmOS Shortcuts and TypeIt4Me abbreviations don't work exactly the same -- e.g., if you have a Shortcut called "abc", you can't have a different Shortcut called "abcd", whereas the trigger for expansion in TypeIt4Me can be set to a whole range of characters or keys. I'm willing to change abbreviations to make them work in Shortcuts. *But* I don't want to re-type/re-write every single one into the Visor! Is there a way to import TypeIt4Me abbreviations and their matching expanded text into Palm Shortcuts, en masse? --Chuan
