You can also examine the automaticly generated report that will calculate average consumption and total values from your entries.

    i’m on e71, but i can’t seem to input the decimal point. tried every key.

    @doinkers: Yes, you can’t enter values in decimal format because this was created for Java ME 1.0 platform which doesn’t have support for decimals. All the values are entered as cents (money and liters) e.g. 10.50$ would be entered as 1050 and 43.21l would be 4321 centiliters.

    HI!

    Needed to format phone and also upgrade firmware. I have installed your car manager to memory card but I also formatted that (before I take full copy, off course ;)).

    Anyway I have used your sw now about one year and I really do not like to re-type all my fueling…

    So… is there a possibility to copy database back again? And what is name of db of Car Manager? You can also write me a email privatly.

    Wow, got the same problem of Pasi. I sent you also an email. It would be great to know how the program save the information so I can restore that. Or also some export/import ability could be an alternative. Thanks Tommy.

    I’ve been using the program for one year already with many thanks. But, unfortunately, I have some minor difficultes so want the developer of this software to change it in next version. In Korea, we use Won instead of Euro and wanted to change this. 1 Euro is about 1500 Korean Won and I usually fill up my car with 60000 – 73000 Korean Won. Can I have this function later?
