INFORMATION MANAGER FOR WINDOWS CE

Information Manager includes three components:

• Calendar: for scheduling appointments and events

• Contacts: for keeping phone numbers and addresses

• Tasks: for keeping track of your to-do lists

If you are using a Microsoft Information Manager such as Schedule+ or Outlook

on your desktop computer, you can transfer information between the above pro-

grams on your palmtop PC with the desktop Information Manager. This allows

you to have the most up-to-date, accurate information on both computers.

Creating the initial database

If you already have calendar, contact, and task information stored on another

computer, you have the following options for transferring the information to your

palmtop PC:

• If you have calendar, contact, and task information stored in a Microsoft

Information Manager (e.g. Schedule+ 7.0a or Outlook) in your desktop

computer, you can synchronize your palmtop PC using the Mobile Devices.

• If the information is stored in another palmtop PC, you can transfer individual

contact cards using infrared communication.

• If the information is stored in HP100LX/200LX palmtop PCs or HP OmniGo

100/120 organizers, you can transfer your Appointment Book and Phone

Book data to your palmtop PC using the appropriate HP connectivity solution

together with the HP PIM Translation Utility which is included in the

HP CD-ROM.

Working in the software programs

The Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks programs share a similar structure: each has

both a list view and individual card views.

List views. Each program has one or more list views. Each list view displays

one row of the most important information for each entry. In some cases, you

can make changes in the list view.
