An Appointment Translation Limitation
Although the Appointment Book applications on the HP 100LX/ 200LX palmtop
PCs and HP OmniGo 100/120 organizers and the Calendar application on the HP
Palmtop PC support daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly repeated events, the
Schedule+ application supports only daily and yearly repeated events. Since all
translation goes through Schedule+, there is no direct mapping from earlier HP
Palmtop products to Schedule+ for repeating weekly and monthly events.
As long as you do not edit imported repeating weekly or monthly events in
Schedule+ before you synchronize them with the HP Palmtop PC, they will
translate correctly into repeating events on the palmtop PC. If, however, you edit
them in Schedule+, they lose their weekly/monthly attribute and are treated as
single events.
TRANSLATING PHONE BOOK DATA
To translate a phone book data file:
1. Click on Phone Book in the Welcome screen.
2. Specify the phone book data file to translate in the Open File dialog box,
then click OK. If the file you specify is not a PIM database file of the
appropriate type, you’ll get an error message.
