Calendar 54
You can add appointments and events. Calendar has 3 types of entries for
appointments and events:
• Timed day entries for appointments that you wish to give a duration,
e.g. a meeting or dental appointment. The duration can be displayed in
the Calendar views so that you can see when you are busy. A timed
entry can have any duration (up to 31 days).
• Untimed day entries for an appointment without a duration.
• Events for entries that you wish to last a specified number of days,
which do not have start and end times, e.g. holidays.
Timed and untimed entries
To enter a Timed or Untimed day entry:
1. Move the cursor to the date of the appointment and start typing. As soon as
you start typing the New entry dialog is shown where you can set the start
time and duration of the appointment. If the appointment does not need a
start time, remove the tick from the Timed entry dialog box.
• A timed entry appears with a start time, and can also be displayed with
a duration. Entries which cross midnight are marked with « on
subsequent days.
• An untimed entry appears with a bullet and is displayed in the time slot
where you type it in.
2. You can set the duration or end time of a Timed entry in the New entry
dialog, or press the Alarm/More button and move to Details page to enter
a duration longer than 23 hours.
Note! Each view has a standard entry type that is created when you start to
type. To add other types of Calendar entry, select Create new entry on the
Entry menu, and then select the type of entry you want. You can change the
standard entry type for each view. See “Customizing Calendar” later.
Note! You can add a handwritten entry by writing the entry as a sketch, see
the “Attaching a Sketch” section later in this chapter.
Events
To enter an event:
• On the Entry menu, select the command for creating a new event.
Type in the details of the event, e.g. ‘Holiday in Spain’ and set the start
date and duration in days. Event entries are marked with a flag symbol.
‘Pencilling in’ a tentative entry
You can pencil in a Calendar entry, e.g. to reserve a time slot for an
appointment that has not been confirmed.
To pencil in a Calendar entry:
• In the New entry dialog, press the Alarm/More button, move to the
Other page and tick the tentative entry box. The entry will be displayed
as grey text in the Calendar views.
