The address and subject lines in an email,
text, or multimedia message you compose,
as well as the message body, are also
text-entry fields.
Some fields that display a right arrow—for
TIP
example, the Attendees field in Calendar or
the Categories field in Contacts or Tasks—are
selection fields, not text-entry fields. In a
selection field, press Centre or Right to view
additional options.
If a field displays both a right and a left

arrow, it is not a text-entry field. Instead, it is a
field for which a list is available (see Selecting
options in a list).
