Assigning due dates to entries

A To Do entry must be given a due date (or month) so the Organizer knows how to classify it and the Calendar knows when it becomes due. The due date can be entered either by typing in the actual date, or by selecting the date from the pop-up calendar and using the arrow keys to select the desired month and day.

Enter the following information:

Description	Sales report
Due Date	Sept 10,1998.

In the To Do application:

Press [NEW].

Type Sales Report.

Move to the DUE DATE field. Enter the due date in the order of the month, day, year. Type 09101998, or press [ 11, use [PREY and [NEXT] to display September 1998, thenuse[A] [‘I] [+I [,]andtomovetothelOthof the month.

Press [ENTER].

At indexview, a ! mark will be displayed beside an overdue entry (ie. an entry for which the due date has passed).

This operation can be done in the To Do application, which lets you check off a task that you have completed before its due date.
