Outlook 2003 Contact Note question

[Beemer]

Sorry if this is a stupid question but do blank lines in a note increase the
contact note "file size"?
My concern relates to my 3000 contacts synchronised with Outlook 2002 in my
PDA. I have only just started adding note information to each contact and
am concerned that I will run out of PDA memory if I have too much text or
blank lines.

I'd think a blank line is 1-4 bytes at most

Vince,

Ah! probably just the carriage return ASCII character.

Thanks,

Beemer

Most likely but I accounted for CRLF in Unicode (which should be four bytes)

No, it's two. The CR (carriange return, 0xD) is one and the LF (line feed,
0xA) is the other.

I would think that in Unicode it would be 0x0A, 0x00, 0x0D, 0x00 since
Unicode adds the extra null (0x00) to every ASCII character. Of course, I
haven't dug into the contact record to see the details but saying the length
is between one and four bytes pretty much covers all the potential answers.
