These Freebees are only for ACT! 5 / 6 & 2000. We'll may do some ACT! 2005/2006 Freebees at some point, but having to re-write our main line add-ons has been keeping us busy.
 Northwoods Software's ACT! Freebees are provided without support, but if you have a problem, contact us here, we will help if time allows.

Lookup All Matching Company
How many times have you sat there in ACT!, looking at the "Bill Gates" contact and wondered how many other "Microsoft" employees you have in your ACT! database?
You have to do Lookup->Company, type in "Microsoft", and then hit OK.
This month's freebee allows you to click a button in the button bar, and in the blink on an eye will lookup all the contacts at the same company as the current contact.
Unzip the file to a safe place (we suggest creating a Freebee folder) and then add a button to your toolbar, like this:
- in ACT, do Tools->Customize
- Select the "Commands" tab
- Click "New"
- Click "Browse", pick the "Lookup All Matching Company" program.
- Click Save.
- Select the "Toolbars" Tab.
- Click "Insert" to add this new command button on the Contact Window Toolbar.
- You can drag the new button where you want it.
- Click Save.
- Click Close.
- The button should now be in your toolbar.
Bonus: This same add-on will also match Last Name, State, ID/Status, etc. To set this up, in the "Command Line" of the Commands Tab, add the Contact Field ID after the .exe.
Example: "c:\freebee\lookup all matching company.exe 79"
This is now "lookup all matching last name". Other IDs:
|
City |
30 |
ID/Status |
34 |
| State |
31 |
Title |
46 |
You can get the Field IDs by running ACT's ACTDIAG.EXE and creating a Report.

MultiLookup V2
MultiLookup is an add-in that lets you enter the details you remember about a contact and it will do the work of doing the initial lookup and then the additional "Narrow Lookups" to find the contact you want.>
MultiLookup has been one of our most popular ACT! Freebees ever. We've had lots of suggestions for improvements, and we've finally dumped them all into a new V2.
You may find that you never use Lookup > First Name or Lookup > Last Name in ACT! again.
New Features in V2
You can now type "John Smith" into the first line of the dialog, and it will do a lookup first on "John" and then a narrow lookup on "Smith".
It adds a MultiLookup button to the button bar.
It allows the addition of 5 custom fields.
We've added Country as a built-in field.

ReAttach 2.0
ReAttach was originally released in August 2000. It was a very simple add-on that would copy attachment files and repair all the attachments in ACT! so that they pointed to the new attachment folder.
But many people have different types of attachments in different folders, so ReAttach didn't meet their needs.
ReAttach 2 is now "folder specific". It will allow you to move attachments from a specific folder to a new folder. So, your email and invoices can stay in separate folders.
It also lets you pick specific file types, so you can use it to separate your .XLS files attachments from the .DOC and .DET files.
