Abstract
A personal computer having an associated telephone is provided with a note-taking facility integrated therewithin. The operation of the note-taking facility is automatically initiated by the computer in response to the entering into a telephone transaction by the user. Specifically, the user is prompted when the telephone transaction is entered into for an indication as to whether notes are to be taken during that transaction. If the user gives an affirmative such indication, the facility immediately adapts itself to begin to receive the notes and present them on the computer display. An association is maintained between the notes taken during an individual telephone transaction and the party with whom the user was engaged during the transaction and the notes associated with a party are automatically retrieved and displayed for the user when a subsequent telephone transaction with that party is entered into.
