Common Tasks
In addition to the wireless communication applications, your Treo™ 180g communicator also
includes a full suite of personal information manager (PIM) applications: Date Book Plus, the
Contacts view in PhoneBook, To Do List, Memo Pad, and Expense. This chapter provides
instructions on how to do tasks that are common to several applications. It’s easy to transfer what
you learn in one application to the other applications because the structure and behavior of all
these applications are quite similar.
Throughout this chapter, the term “record” is used to refer to an individual item in any of the PIM
applications: a single Date Book Plus event, Contacts entry in PhoneBook, To Do List item, Memo
Pad memo, or Expense item.
Using menus
Menus on your communicator are easy to use. Once you have mastered them in one application,
you can use them the same way in all other applications.
The menus of each application are illustrated in the section on that application in Chapter 6. The
Edit menu is described in the section that begins on page 64.
To open the menu bar:
1. Do one of the following:
■ Open an application (such as Memo Pad) and then tap the Menu icon .
■ Tap the inverted tab at the top of any application’s screen (except Calculator).
In this example, three menus are available: Record, Edit, and Options. The Record menu is
selected and contains the commands New Memo, Delete Memo, and Beam Memo.
