I searched for France, but I found Francesca. Why?

The search word matches against the beginning of words in the dictionary. This means that you do not have enter an entire word to do the search - helpful when entering words with C-Write, or when the same subject has multiple endings (German/Germany/Germanic). But the downside is that you will get extra matches. Just press the Navigate button and continue on. In most cases it is a minor inconvenience. Once in a while, you might want to choose a different search word to get to the desired information more quickly.

Search words must be at least 3 letters long. Accents are automatically removed for searching, so that matches will be found from any language source scan.

I would like to have the Pocket Guide to World History in printed form, on my Palm Pilot, on my PC, etc. Where can I get it?

The Pocket Guide to World History was originally created as a printed pocket guide, but it is currently out of print. If there is sufficient demand for an updated printed version, or for other computerized versions, we will create them. A web version is currently in the works. Let us know you are interested, and we will tell you when we release a version in the format you want.

I have a database that I would like implemented on the C-Pen.

If you would like to use the Pocket History functionality for your own database, contact the author for information on rates for custom programming or to purchase a copy of the source code.

I am a C-Pen dealer. Can I install Pocket History on the C-Pens I sell?
