Scheduling events

An entry in Date Book is called an event. When you schedule an
event, its description appears on the time line, and its duration is set
to 1 hour by default. You can easily change the start time and
duration for any event. You can schedule these types of events in
Date Book:
• Timed events, such as meetings, that have a specific date
and a specific start and end time.
• Untimed events, such as birthdays, holidays, and
anniversaries. These events occur on a particular date but
have no specific start or end times; they appear at the top
of the schedule for that date and are marked with a diamond.
You can schedule more than one untimed event on the same
date.
