Considerations for the Repeat Function
■ If you change the start date of a repeating event, your Palm III
organizer calculates the number of days you have moved the
event. Your Palm III organizer then automatically changes the end
date to maintain the duration of the repeating event.
■ If you change the repeat type (e.g., daily to weekly) of a repeating
event, past occurrences (prior to the day on which you change the
setting) are left alone and your Palm III organizer creates a new
repeating event.
■ If you change the date of an occurrence of a repeating event (e.g.,
from January 14th to January 15th) and apply the change to all
occurrences, the new date becomes the start date of the repeating
event. Your Palm III organizer adjusts the end date to maintain the
duration of the event.
