Once a program has been scheduled for viewing, previewing, or taping, you have the option of canceling the action. Schedules can also be canceled directly from the on-screen guide by highlighting

a scheduled program and pressing the key. Canceling a scheduled program will also remove the check mark icon preceding the program title on the on-screen guide.

button. After highlighting the button and pressing , you will be given the opportunity to confirm your purchase.

purchase of this type excludes the possibility of taping the event forPurchase confirmation later viewing.

The Tape/View price indicates the cost to record the event for later viewing. Of course, you can also view the event when it airs if you select this option.
