Making Events Repeat in Pocket Scheduler

Use the Change Repeat screen to select an interval to cause an event to repeat. The screen displays five repeat interval options: none, day, week, month, and year. Each option has its own settings.

Note: If you know a word in the event description, you can search the Palm device for the event, using the Palm Find application.

To set a repeat interval:

Start the Pocket Scheduler application.

Display the Daily Schedule screen.
Tap Details to display the Event Details screen.

Note: If the event is scheduled using the Eclipse application and downloaded to the Palm device, the application displays the View Only Details screen.

Tap the value in the Repeat field. The default is None.

The Palm displays the Change Repeat screen.

Considerations When Using the Repeat Function

If you change specific settings for events, there are results that the system calculates for you:

If you change the start date of a repeating event with an end date, the application calculates the number of days you moved the event and then changes the end date to maintain the original duration of the event.
If you change the date of a repeating event with an end date and apply the change to all occurrences, the new date becomes the start date of the repeating event and the end date is adjusted to maintain the duration of the event.
If you change the repeat type, start or end times, alarm, or privacy settings, the application creates a new repeating event for the current and future events using the new settings, and leaves past occurrences of the repeating event as they were.
If you change the one occurrence of a repeating event, the application creates a new event for that occurrence. The event does not display the Repeat icon.
