Viewing Appointments Conveniently
Entering appointments and then viewing them are separate tasks. You can use,
say, the 15-minute timeslots to enter appointments—to find openings around a
certain time—but then switch to Appts-Only view (press(MENU), (Skettings,(Timeline,
(Alppts-Only, ESC) to see your whole day at a glance. You could also enter your
appointments in Appts-Only view, but you'll have to type in the start and stop
times, since there are no designated timeslots (for just occasional appointments,
this may still be the handiest option). However, you won't see the duration bars
in the Appts-Only view. In any Daily View, by contrast, you can tell at a glance
if an alarm is set for an appointment (the R), if an appointment repeats (the =),
or if it has a note attached (the [l). To inspect the details of any appointment,
highlight it and press ENTER). To return after inspecting, press (El=lEl=).
Keeping the To-Do Lists Up-to-Date
To-Do items are carried forward whenever you enter them with the carry-forward
enabled. For example, if you enter Call MoOmMin tomorrow’s to-do list, with the
carry-forward enabled, you've also entered Call Mom in every to-do list from
now on—until you check it off your list (but once you do check it off, it disappears
from all future to-do lists except the one for the day you checked it off. That one
remains as a record of what you've accomplished—at least until you remove the
accumulated reminders to make room for future entries—see page 26). Here’s how
to check off a To-Do item as completed:
1. Display the To-Do list containing the item—usually today’s list.
2. Highlight the item and press the space bar. You will see the “checked-off”
symbol (#) in front of the file.
3. If, for any reason, you change your mind about the status of a To-Do item, you
can reinstate it by pressing the space bar again while the item is highlighted.
To delete a To-Do item altogether:
1. Display the To-Do list containing the item to be checked off.
2. Highlight the item and press (F3) (HER).
