New Ways to Work with Records Page 11
Note:
In Date Book, you can choose to delete the text of the current
repeating event, current and future events, or all instances of
that event.
When you purge repeating events in Date Book, a
confirmation dialog box appears. Tap the pick list and select
how you want to purge old records. Purge deletes repeating
events if the last of the series ends before the date that you
purge records.
Considerations for repeating or continuous events
If you change the date of an occurrence of a repeating event (e.g., from
January 14 to January 15) and apply the change to all occurrences, the
new date becomes the start date of the repeating event. Your handheld
adjusts the end date to maintain the duration of the event. If you apply
the change to current and future occurrences, past occurrences are not
changed.
Creating all-day events
You can create records for meetings and appointments that last all day
by manually setting the start time at the beginning of your day, and
the end time at the close of your day.
What changed?
The 3.5 Upgrade includes a new button in the Set Time dialog, called
All Day. When you tap this button, it automatically inserts the start
and end time of the event as defined in your Date Book preferences.
Delaying event reminders
In Date Book, you can set an audible alarm to remind you of an
important meeting or appointment. You can set it for minutes, hours
or days before the event. The alarm sounds at the predetermined time
and a dialog box appears to remind you of the event.
