6. Tap the OK button to close the Event Details dialog and return to

the Date Book screen.

Note:

You can set a silent alarm for an untimed event. In this case,

the alarm triggers at the specified period of minutes, hours or
days before midnight (beginning) of the day of the untimed
event. No audible alarm sounds for an untimed event; instead,
the reminder message appears on the screen of the Palm III
organizer.

For example, you could create a reminder for an untimed

event that occurs on February 4th. If the alarm reminder is set
for 5 minutes, the alarm reminder appears at 11:55 PM on the
night of February 3rd. The reminder remains on the screen
until you turn on your Palm III organizer and tap the OK
button to dismiss it.

Scheduling Repeating Events

The Repeat function enables you to schedule events that recur at
regular intervals. A birthday is a good example of an event that
repeats annually. Another example would be a weekly guitar lesson
that falls on the same day of the week and the same time of day. After
you enter a repeating event, a

icon appears to the far right of the

event.
