■ If you change other repeat settings (e.g., time, alarm, private) of a
repeating event and apply the change to all occurrences, your
Palm III organizer creates a new event. The start date of this new
event is the day on which the setting is changed. Past occurrences
(prior to the day of the change) are left alone and not changed.
■ If you make a change to one occurrence of a repeating event (e.g.,
time), that occurrence no longer shows the Repeat icon.
Marking a Private Event
You can designate a specific event as “private.” When you activate the
Security features, your Palm III organizer hides all private entries and
you must enter a password to display them on the screen.
To mark an event as private:
1. Tap the event you want to mark as private.
2. Tap the Details button to open the Event Details dialog for that
event.
3. Select the Private check box.
4. Tap the OK button to close the Event Details dialog and return to
the Date Book screen.
Deleting an Event
There are three ways to delete an event from the Date Book
application: simply delete the text of the event, use the Menu
Commands (described in the “Record Menu” section later in this
chapter), or use the Event Details dialog.
Note: If you delete the text of a repeating event, you delete all
instances of that event. If you use the Menu Command or the
Event Details dialog, you can delete one occurrence of the
event (as an exception) or all occurrences.
To delete an event with the Event Details dialog:
1. Tap anywhere in the text area of the event to delete.
2. Tap the Details button to open the Event Details dialog.
3. Tap the Delete button to open the Delete Event alert.
4. Tap the OK button to confirm you want to delete the event.
