interface to enter time and date information in these dialog boxes. So
before we start talking about using the “Schedule manager” in this
section, we should explain how to enter the date and time. When you
are asked to enter a date and time, you can either type in the date and
time, or select it using shortcut keys, which are outlined at the end of this
section. When you type numbers in date/time, you can use either
Computer Braille (without a number sign) or regular Uncontrated Braille
(with or without a number sign). When entering time, use “hh mm”
format, two digits for the hour, and two digits for the minute. For
example, use “10 05” to enter 5 minutes past 10. You can use a space
or colon (:) to separate the hour field and minute field. You can enter a
date in “mm dd yyyy” format, which uses two digits for the month, two
digits for the day, and four digits for the year, as in “09 01 2004” to enter
September 01, 2004. Again, you can use a space or slash (/) to
separate the month, day, and year. To set the date and time with
shortcut keys, you can use the following commands.
