Month View
Month view provides an overview of your schedule 1 month at a time. Arrows pointing
upward represent morning appointments, and arrows pointing downward represent
afternoon appointments. If you have both morning and afternoon appointments on the
same day, the arrows form a colored box. All-day events are indicated by an empty box.
If you have morning and afternoon appointments and an all-day event on the same day,
an empty box surrounds a colored box.

Importing Calendar Information
You can import calendar information from another calendar program that uses the iCal or

text messages, and links in Microsoft
®
Pocket Internet Explorer, or by beaming. When
you import information and then synchronize, the information is added to Outlook on your
desktop computer.
Using Tasks
A task is a personal or work-related project, assignment, or errand to track through
completion. A task can occur once, or it can recur. A recurring task can repeat at regular
intervals or repeat based on the date you mark the task complete. For example, you
might want to pay a bill on the last Friday of every month, or get a haircut when 1 month
has passed since your last haircut.
The Task List
The task list is your “things to do” list. On the Smartphone you can create and delete
tasks and mark them as complete. Completed tasks are displayed with the
corresponding check box selected.
