* These Lotus Notes fields fields are merged into the on-device Note
field when Lotus Notes data is downloaded to Palm in a sync. If you sync
the same infomation back to Lotus Notes, information in the on-device
Note field only syncs back to the Lotus Notes Description field; the
information is not split into the separate Lotus Notes Location, Rooms,
and Resources fields.

Creating and modifying Calendar events on your device

Note

If you have the Calendar sync Action set to “Desktop overwrites
handheld” or “Do Nothing,” you can skip this section.

Tip

If you have your Calendar sync Action set to Synchronize the files, most
of the problems you may encounter arise from features in the Lotus
Notes Calendar that are not supported in the Palm Calendar. For
example, Lotus Notes allows you to make exceptions for individual
events in a repeating series, while the Palm Calendar does not.

Here are some tips for creating or changing Calendar events on your
Palm OS device so that they sync back to your desktop as smoothly as
possible:

To create a Lotus Notes All Day Event, create an event and tap the
No Time

option.

Note

Any Palm Calendar event with no time specified becomes an All Day
Event in Lotus Notes.

To create a Lotus Notes Anniversary, create an event with no Start
Time

or End Time, and set Repeat to Yearly, Every 1 Year(s).
