Editing a contact on Blackberry Bold

Change is an inevitable part of life. Given that fact, your contact information is sure to change as well. To keep current the information you diligently put in Contacts, you have to do some updating now and then. To update a contact, follow these steps:
1. On the BlackBerry Home screen, select Contacts.
2. In Contacts, scroll to and highlight a contact name, press the Menu key, and then select Edit. The Edit Contact screen for that contact makes an appearance. In Contacts (or any BlackBerry application, for that matter), displaying a menu involves a simple press of the Menu key. You see the Edit option on the menu right below View.
3. Scroll through the various fields of the Edit Contact screen, editing the contact information as you see fit. If you want to edit only a few words or letters in a field (instead of replacing all the text), scroll the trackball while pressing and holding the Alt key (located to the left of the Z key) to position your cursor precisely on the text you want to change. Then make your desired changes.
4. Press the Menu key, and then select Save. The edit you made for this contact is saved.

When you’re editing information and you want to totally replace the entry with a new one, it’s much faster to first clear the contents, especially if you have a lot of old data. When you are in an editable field (as opposed to a selectable field), just press the Menu key, and then select Clear Field. This feature is available in all text-entry fields and for most BlackBerry applications.
