Basic Handbook for the IBM WorkPad
Using Categories
Categories can help you group Address entries, To Do items or
Memos for easy review. You cannot, however, assign categories to
Date Book events.
When you first create an entry, it is “Unfiled,” which means it does not
belong to any particular category. You can leave an entry as Unfiled
or assign it to a category at any time. Either way, the entry is always
available until you delete it. The category you choose is used only for
sorting and reviewing records. The category you select does not affect
the actual contents of the record.
Note:
The use of categories is optional. You do not need to assign
categories to use WorkPad applications.
To assign a category to an entry:
1. Tap a To Do item or Memo, or tap an Address Book entry then tap
the Edit button in the Address View screen (refer to the
descriptions in the Applications Handbook for the IBM WorkPad for
details).
2. Tap the Details button to open the Details dialog.
3. Tap the Category pick list to display a list of available categories.
4. Tap the category that you want to assign to the entry.
5. Tap the OK button to close the Details dialog and activate your
setting.
