Recover corrupted Address Book data with group info
Authored by: stormy on Mar 21, '06 06:11:54AM

I have a related problem that maybe could be solved in a similar way.

Due to some syncing strangeness (with Missing Sync 5 and my Treo 600), the phone numbers in the Treo appear in random order. i.e: contacts with several numbers will have "fax" listed on top, or "other" listed on top, etc.

However, the Address Book lists the fields in the right order, just like they were originally in the Palm.

I've also found out that when Quicksilver accesses phone numbers, they are in the same "random" order. That means the "random" order is somewhere inside the Address Book database.

So I think if I can find some way to fix the Address Book database and sort the phone fields in the same order for all the contacts, the Palm problem will be solved too.

Any hints?
