Description

A method of adding contact information in the phonebook of a handheld device

technical field

The invention relates to the information service field of a handheld device, in particular to a method for adding contact information in a phone book of a handheld device.

Background technique

With the increase of the memory of the handheld device, more and more information can be stored in the handheld device, not only text information, sound information, but also a large amount of picture information can be stored. In addition, due to the increase of memory, not only the number of contact information stored in the phone book of the handheld device is increasing, but also the number of entries included in each contact information is also increasing. In many new handheld devices, each Contact information includes name, phone, business phone, mobile phone, fax, email, memo, address, zip code, country, city, website, etc., and even more entries.

When the user needs to add entry information of a contact, if there are multiple pieces of information to be input, they need to be input one by one. Only one item can be input at a time, and the information corresponding to one item is stored.

Due to the increase of information items, when setting the way of contacts, input operations need to be performed one by one, and the input operation process is cumbersome, resulting in complicated operations and waste of time.

Contents of the invention

In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for adding contact information in the phonebook of a handheld device, which can overcome the disadvantage of complicated operations in the prior art when adding information in the phonebook.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for adding contact information in the phonebook of a handheld device, the method comprising the following steps:

A. Obtain a business card image, which includes contact information;

B. Set the mapping relationship between the business card image and the corresponding contact information in the phone book of the handheld device, and store the mapping relationship and the business card image in the handheld device.

Preferably, in step B, the business card image is stored in the handheld device as:

The business card image file is stored in the business card image folder pre-set in the storage area of the handheld device.

Preferably, between step A and step B, it further includes: judging whether there is contact information corresponding to the business card image acquired in step A, and if so, continuing to execute step B; in step B, adding After the mapping relationship and the business card image are stored in the handheld device, the attribute of the business card image file is further set to be stored in the phone book.

Judging whether there is corresponding contact information can be as follows:

After inputting the corresponding contact information, the system queries the data in the phone book, and if it finds data matching the input information, it means that there is contact information.

The method for judging whether there is corresponding contact information may also be:

Query the information in the phone book. If the information of a contact in the phone book is selected, it means that there is contact information.

Preferably, in step B, the mapping relationship between the business card image and the corresponding contact information in the phone book is set, and it is stored in the handheld device as:

The business card image file name is stored in the electronic business card entry corresponding to the contact information in the phone book, wherein the electronic business card entry is pre-added in the phone book.

Preferably, before step B, it further includes: the system judges whether there is a business card image file name in the electronic business card entry corresponding to the contact information in the phone book, and if there is a business card image file name, deletes the business card image file name, and then executes the Step B; otherwise, directly execute step B.

Further, after step B, include:

When querying the electronic business card entry in the phone book, the system displays the business card image corresponding to the name of the business card image file name stored therein.

Further, before the system displays the business card image corresponding to the name of the business card image file stored therein, it also includes:

The system judges whether the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the name of the electronic name card has been stored. Or information selected from existing business card images, after the selection, if the operation of obtaining business card images is selected, step A is performed; if the selection is selected from existing business card images, the system displays that the attribute is not A list of business card images already stored in the phonebook.

Further, after the system displays that the attribute is not a business card image list stored in the phone book, it also includes: the system judges whether a business card image is selected from the business card image list, and if a business card image is selected, the system stores the name of the business card image file in this entry; otherwise, the system prompts information about the operation of obtaining the business card image, and then executes step A.
