What is it?

ShopList is a program for the 3Com/US Robotics PalmPilot™ and IBM WorkPad™ that can be used to keep track of your shopping list. ShopList is free.

What Can It Do?

ShopList has many features to help manage your shopping list.

With ShopList you enter items into your shopping list and keep track of whether you "have" the item or "need" the item. ShopList can show you all of the items in your shopping list, only those items that you "have," or only those items that are "needed." When shopping, just display the list of items that are "needed" and check them off as you pick them up at the store.

ShopList allows you to enter the names of the stores where you frequently shop. An item can be assigned to any combination of the store names. Use this feature when you can buy an item at more than one store.

In addition, items can be organized into user-defined categories. This feature can streamline your shopping trip by assigning items into common locations or departments. ShopList can also keep track of the quantity needed of each item.

ShopList supports the PalmPilot's system-wide find function and features a jump-stroke method to quickly jump to an item in the list.

How Do I Use It?

Please read the ShopList User's Manual for information on how to use the program.

Bug Reports

ShopList is my first program for the PalmPilot™ and there are bound to be some problems. I want to make Shoplist better and welcome bug reports from users. Please send them directly to me at geschke@itronix.com (or geschke@geocities.com). Include "ShopList" in the title of your email. Please try to provide sufficient details and step-by-step procedures so that I can recreate your problem.
