Holding down the green call button is my preferred way to find & call a number in address book. I have seen that "use once" at the top --what is it & how do you use it?

Cool trick. So, let's say I want to dial by name? The only phone number I have memorized is 911. The rest I just use my name directory, so to dial my friend Alex I'd dial ?AS /,L / 1ER / @ZX and it would look up Alex and dial him.
The Use Once feature doesn't support dialing by name. Any other ideas?

Omg! I love you! Lol...I've had the same prob since I got my curve (in feb) and have been trying to figure out a way to silence my keypad. FINALLY! A suggestion that worked! I could kiss you Thanks so much!!

If nobody has told you yet, all you really have to do is switch your sound profile to a silent one, for instance "silent" or "vibrate." That turns off your keypad sounds, now just modify the sound profile to actually do whatever you want. If your like me you'll use three profiles, one for "all quite", one for vibrate and sound for important messages, then a "loud" one for when the phone is not on your person. So there you have it, just use a silent profile then modify it.
Is there any way to create a profile based on the schematics of a preset profile (i.e., create a profile named "normal" based on the details of the "vibrate" profile) so that the tone is silent? I have tried various ways and am unable to do it. I have activated the "Vibrate" profile, then attempt to create a "new" profile, but see that the 'phone' setting is @ 'tone', which I believe is based on the 'normal' preset setting.
Jayson was correct, you can silence your keypad without losing your ringtone by going into profiles, set your active profile to quiet, then go to Advanced and press your blackberry button (directly left of the mouse) go to edit and then phone, when you are in this screen change the out of holster from none to tone and choose your tone, save these changes and you will have your normal ring but no keypad sounds!
Thanks so much!!
