Show Completed
Items

Displays your completed items in the To Do List. If you turn
off this setting, your To Do items disappear from the list when
you complete (check) them.

Items that no longer appear on the list because you turn off
this setting have not been deleted. They are still in the
memory of your handheld. Purge completed items to remove
them from memory.

complete (check) the item. If you do not assign a due date to
an item, the completion date still records when you complete
the item.

and displays an exclamation mark next to items that remain
incomplete after the due date passes.
