Customizing a to-do list
You can change the way the To-do list looks and how To-do entries are shown
in the Day and Week views.
To change a To-do list:
• On the To-do lists menu, select To-do list preferences.
• Each to-do list is displayed on a ‘page’; the page number controls the
order in which the to-do lists are displayed. If you want to move the
to-do list to another page, set the page number as appropriate.
• If you want to be able to arrange to-do entries on the list yourself, set
the sort order to Manual. New entries you add to the list will appear at
the cursor position, and you can cut, copy and paste to-do entries to put
them in the order you want.
• Tick the boxes according to what you want to see in the To-do view
and other views.
• If you want to see to-do entries in a specific time slot in the Day view,
for example personal to-do entries in the evening, set the time as the
standard position.
You can use Paste to insert text copied in other programs straight in as a
Calendar entry. For example, copy some text in Word using Copy, move to
Calendar and to the position you wish the Calendar entry to appear and select
Paste.
You can also insert information from other programs into a Calendar entry,
e.g. add a sketch of a map to the entry for a meeting appointment. This
information is called an ‘object’.
Attaching Word documents to entries
You can attach a Word document as a ‘memo’ to any Calendar entry, for
example a list of things you want to discuss at a meeting.
To attach a Word document:
1. Highlight the entry to which you want to attach the Word document.
2. Select Edit object Word on the Edit menu.
3. This takes you to a new Word document where you can type in your text.
See the ‘Word’ chapter for more about using Word. When you have
finished editing the document, close it to return to Calendar.
• To see or edit the document later, select the entry with the attached
memo and then select Word again.
Attaching a ‘voice note’
You can attach a spoken memo (a ‘voice note’) or another sound to any
Calendar entry.
To attach a voice note:
1. Select the entry to which you want to attach the voice note.
2. Select Edit object Voice note on the Edit menu.
3. This takes you to a Record file where you can make the recording in the
normal way. See the ‘Record’ chapter for more about using the Record
