Hey. Got a question for all of the tech freaks out there. I know there's plenty of you around.

[It isn't the most formal way to start a message, never mind a request - but even so, there's a briskness to his voice that sounds almost business-like.]

Let's say I want to keep an eye on the names that show up on this thing [a couple of relatively loud taps] along with the new people. Is there a way I can set it up so it... [He hesitates for a fraction of a second, but carries on as if he hadn't.] lets me know somehow when a specific name gets added to it? Or any name, that works too. Just out of interest.

Details would help, but a straight yes or no's better than nothing. I'm not exactly expecting any hand-holding here.

It would be much easier to build the function into your notebook.

Right. Any other vague hints?

I haven't had much chance to look at the system and its setup, but I could probably help you out if you want.

[imperfect]

Well... if you get a chance, think you could do everyone a favour and let people know? There's more than just me who'd be interested, that's for sure.

I'll put it on my to-do list.
