Abstract

In a data processing system such as a personal communicator, a method for operating a messaging device includes defining a plurality of content types and receiving an information entity. The method further includes associating the information entity with any combination of the plurality of content types. The method further includes displaying identifying information and content type information for the information entity. Thus, users can specify inclusion of information entities having any different content type in heterogeneous collections which may be displayed and managed on the communicator.
