Purging records

Over time, as you use Date Book Plus, To Do List, and Expense, you’ll accumulate records in these applications that have outlived their usefulness. For example, events that occurred months ago remain in the Date Book Plus, and To Do items that you marked as completed remain in the list, as do Expense items.

All these outdated records take up memory on your phone, so it’s a good idea to remove them by using Purge. If you think Date Book Plus or To Do List records might prove useful later, you can purge them from your phone and save them in an archive file.

Purging is not available in the Contacts view in PhoneBook or in Memo Pad. So you need to delete outdated records from these applications individually.
