Hi
Kontact's / KOrganiser's "Find" tool works very well, but i'd like to know how / if i can do global / bulk "Replace" functions in KOrganiser. Eg, either in the Kontact / KOrganiser GUI itself, or otherwise somehow in the underlying database structure, can i "Find" all instances of [eg] "black" & then "Replace" with "purple"? Making bulk replacements one by one manually is tedious to the point of impracticality. Thanks. Steffie. |

Hmmm
No community support here, no response from majority of developers when separately emailed, passive-aggressive unhelpful response from one developer when separately emailed, lots of niggling functionality problems with Kontact broadly & KOrganizer specifically. It's a pity, coz it's a nice product in many ways, but after living with it for a couple of months & getting more & more disappointed by its technical shortcomings & zero support. i took an alternative path. Discovered & installed PlayOnLinux, then using it i installed my Outlook 2010. It does not run perfectly, but it does run well, & so now i have all the desired PIM functionality back, still within Linux. I'm pleased with the outcome, but a little sad that after migrating from MS Win7 to Linux Mint earlier this year & mostly loving it, i've had to retain this one vestige of MS. I sincerely hope that one day Kontact will get there. I wish the developers & community all the best wishes. Steffie. |
