This is a phonebook program that can be used to save a phonebook to a file, view all entries in the phonebook, add a new entry, delete an entry from the phonebook, find an entry by name, create pdf and html files of the phonebook.
data structure is used to store the list of phonebook entries. Each Hashtable entry contains the name and phone number. An operation (e.g add entry to phonebook) is performed on the Hashtable phonebook list. The updated phonebook list will be saved to the phonebook.bin file. When the program firstly loads, the file is read so that all entries in the phonebook are retrieved for later used in the program.
