Scheduling an event
A record in Date Book Plus is called an “event.” An event can be any kind 
of activity that you associate with a day. You can enter a new event on any 
of the available time lines. When you schedule an event, its description 
appears on the time line, and its duration is automatically set to one 
hour. You can easily change the start time and duration for any event.
Note: 
It’s possible to schedule events that overlap, but Date Book Plus 
makes it easy to find such conflicts. See page 126 for details.
You can also schedule events that occur on a particular date but have no 
specific start or end times, such as birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries. 
These are referred to as “untimed events.” Untimed events appear at the 
top of the list of times, marked with a diamond. You can have more than 
one untimed event on a particular date.
You can also schedule a repeating event, such as a weekly meeting, and 
continuous events, such as a three-day conference or a vacation.
To schedule an event:
1.
Select the date on which you want to schedule the event as described 
in the previous section.
2.
Type the time the event begins to open the Set Time dialog box. For 
example, type 4 for 4:00.
