Time Management

The explanations and examples in this chapter will give you the information you need to make all of the time management features of these applications work for you on a daily basis.

The Calendar Application

The Calendar represents the Organizer’s most central utility. It serves as a calendar that you can reference at any time for the correct date, and also as a time management utility, indicating important dates so that you can keep track of your time and appointments. The application performs as a highly sophisticated calendar that can display details of any month from January 1901 to December 2099. The Calendar also provides you with a convenient way of accessing, viewing and making new entries in the Ann and Schedule applications.
