    Edit Services "Description" field


    As title suggests, I'm wondering how to edit the description of services that appear in "services.msc"... I have several programs that run as services that I know and use, but have no descriptions at all.

    Would be nice to be able to see these and immediately recognize them when viewing list of running services.

    Cheers

    :)

    N8 no Memo in calender?

    There is a field "Description" on the bottom when you edit a new entry. This takes lot of text, guess this is what you are looking for.

    Editing of contacts: "custom" fields?

    Another feature missing from my 925 wp: when we edit a contact, on the old symbian devices, we had as a last option "custom" in the field area. For example, it may be that a contact has three or more email addresses, but we can only have the option of using
    three, the same with phones: there are a lot of options amitedly, but a cusomisable one would be great. ("work 3", "Company 2" , and it would be great if within the "company" or work" fields, we could perhaps specify

    a "sub" field for a works extension, which would automatically dial, when the contact has been dialled..

    Perhaps another WP upgrade possibility?
