Buttons preferences
The Buttons Preferences screen enables you to assign different
applications to the buttons on the front panel of your handheld and
the HotSync button on the cradle.
For example, if you find that you seldom use To Do List and often use
Expense, you can assign the To Do List button to start Expense.
If you assign a different application to a button, you can still access the
original application using the Applications Launcher.
The Buttons Preferences screen also enables you to reassign the full-
screen pen stroke command and identify an application to open
whenever you raise the antenna.
Any changes you make in the Buttons Preferences screen become
effective immediately; you do not have to change to a different screen
or application.
To reassign the applications buttons:
1. Tap the pick list next to the button you want to reassign.
2. Tap the application that you want to assign to the button.
Tip: Tap Default to restore all of the buttons to their initial settings.
