Will alarms still ring if I close Agenda?

If you close an Agenda file, the Agenda informs the netBook clock to ring the next Agenda alarm at the appropriate time. However, the netBook will not be able to ring any further Agenda alarms from that file until you open it again.

If you use alarms a lot in your Agenda, it is therefore a good idea to leave the Agenda file open when you are not using it, even when the netBook is switched off.

If you do need to close the Agenda file, do not set an alarm and then immediately close the file or switch off. This is because the Agenda program needs a certain amount of time to calculate when the next alarm should ring, and if you switch off before the calculation is complete, the netBook clock will not have been informed to sound the alarm.
