2. Tap the Options menu and then tap Preferences.
3. In the Preferences dialog box, tap the box next to Remember Last Category.

you selected.

Assigning Applications to Buttons
Buttons Preferences allows you to assign different applications to the buttons on the front of the handheld and to the HotSync ®
button on the cradle. For example, if you find that you seldom use the To Do List and often use the Memo Pad, you can assign the
To Do List button to start the Memo Pad application.
You can also change whether the full-screen pen stroke activates the Graffiti
® 2 Help application or another handheld command
using Buttons Preferences.
If you assign a different application to a button, you can still select the original
application using the Applications Launcher. Changes made in the Buttons
Preferences screen or HotSync Buttons dialog box take effect immediately.
To change the Buttons Preferences:
1. Tap the Home icon . Select All from the pick list in the upper right
corner. Then tap the Prefs icon .
2. In the pick list in the upper right corner, tap Buttons.
3. In the Buttons Preferences screen, tap the pick list next to the button you
want to re-assign.
4. Tap the application that you want to assign to the button.
TIP: To restore all of the buttons to their factory settings, tap Default.
