Using To Do List on Pocket PC OS

Note that application names differ slightly on different devices. On newer Palm devices and Pocket PC devices, the To Do List application is called Tasks. See Table 4-1, “Application names on different device platforms,” on page 63.

Working with To Do items on your desktop and on your device

Because of inherent differences in the way To Do items are handled in Lotus Notes vs. your Pocket PC To Do application, the To Do information is often represented differently on the two platforms. For example, Assign To in Lotus Notes To Do List is not supported in your Pocket PC To Do application. You should be aware of these differences as you work with To Do events on your device.

No formal difference from Lotus Notes,

 

 

but Pocket PC application sometimes

 

 

requires a Starts date and sometimes does

 

 

not. If Pylon detects that a Starts date is

 

 

required and the task has only a Due date,

 

 

it automatically assigns the Starts date to

 

 

the Due date. And sometimes, when you

 

 

create a task on device with different Starts

 

 

and Due dates, the Pocket PC application

 

 

shifts both dates by the duration (the time

 

 

between Starts and Due dates when you

 

 

specify that the task Occurs repeatedly.
