For example, you set an alarm for an untimed event that occurs on
February 4th. If the alarm is set for 5 minutes, the reminder message
appears at 11:55 PM on the night of February 3rd. The reminder
remains in the reminder list until you turn on your handheld and
dismiss it.
Scheduling repeating or continuous events
The Repeat function lets you schedule events that recur at regular
intervals or extend over a period of consecutive days.
A birthday is a good example of an event that repeats annually.
Another example is a weekly guitar lesson that falls on the same day
of the week and the same time of day.
A business trip or a vacation is an example of a continuous event.
To schedule a repeating or continuous event:
1. Tap the event.
2. Tap Details.
3. Tap the Repeat box to open the Change Repeat dialog box.
4. Tap Day, Week, Month, or Year to set how often event repeats.
For a continuous event, tap Day.
5. Enter a number that corresponds to how often you want the event
to repeat on the Every line.
For example, if you select Month and enter the number 2, the
event repeats every other month.
6. To specify an end date for the repeating or continuous event, tap
the End on pick list and tap Choose Date. Use the date picker to
select an end date.
