This part of the manual describes how to enter and store data in the
Telephone Directory, Memo, Schedule Keeper, and Reminder Modes.  It
also describes how the Calendar Mode can be used in combination with
the Schedule Keeper Mode.  

To enter a mode

1.  Press MENU to display the main menu screen.

2.  Use the cursor keys to highlight the icon for the mode you want to
    enter.

    Instead you could also enter the number that corresponds to the mode
    you want to enter.

3.  Press SET to enter the selected mode.

    When you enter the Telephone Directory, Memo Mode, or Reminder Mode,
    an initial screen appears on the display.

In the case of the Schedule Keeper, the index display (see "About display
formats" for further information on index displays) for the current date
appears first.

About display formats

There are two display formats used in the Telephone Directory, Memo Mode,
Schedule Keeper, and Reminder Mode: a data display format and an index
display format.  The data display shows all of the data entries contained
in a data item, while an index abbreviates each data item into one or two
lines.  The index display makes it possible to quickly scroll through
data items to find the one that you want.

You can switch between the data display and index display formats at any
time by pressing DISP CHNG.

You can scroll through a data display line-by-line using the up arrow
and down arrow cursor keys.  If you press SHIFT before up arrow and down
arrow, the display scrolls data item-by-data item.

You can scroll through an index display data item-by-data item using the
up arrow and down arrow cursor keys.  If you press SHIFT before up and
down, the display scrolls two data items at a time.

Using the Telephone Directory

The innovative Telephone Directory mode of the Organizer lets you enter
names, telephone numbers, and addresses for instant look up when you
need them.  It even gives you a total of six user-definable items that
you can use to record birthdays, hobbies, or any other information you
want.  Each Telephone Directory data item can contain up to 384 characters
(including next field and newline symbols).

About Telephone Directory data items and data entries

Telephone Directory information is stored in units called data items. 
Each data item is made up of a number of data entries.  Telephone
Directory data items are made up of the following nine entries:

NAME                 FREE 1                         FREE 4
NUMBER               FREE 2                         FREE 5
ADDRESS              FREE 3                         FREE 6

The "FREE" entries can be used for the storage of any type of data
you want.  You can even change the FREE entry labels to produce the
message you want during data entry.

Entering Telephone Directory data

Use the following procedure to enter Telephone Directory data

Notes:  Before trying to perform the following procedure, be sure to first
        read Part 2 of this manual, titled "Entering Letters, Numbers, and
        Symbols".  Make sure you are familiar with the basics of character
        entry and editing before proceeding.

        Telephone Directory data is automatically sorted according to
        name entries.

To enter Telephone Directory data

Example:  To enter the following data.
          Name:  ERIC JACKSON
          Phone Number:  123-4567, 987-5432

1.  Enter the Telephone Directory Mode.  At this time, you could press
    CLEAR to clear the initial Telephone Directory screen and change to
    the name entry screen.

2.  Enter the name with the last name first, since the data is sorted
    according to the name entry.

3.  Press down arrow.  The separator mark symbol is inserted at the end of
    the line, and the "NUMBER?" prompt appears to ask you to enter the
    telephone number.

4.  Enter the telephone number.  To enter a second number, press NEXT then
    enter the digits.

5.  After entering a telephone number, press down arrow to advance to
    address entry.

6.  Enter the address.

    The display scrolls automatically as you enter more data.

7.  After entering an address, press down arrow to advance to the FREE
    entry.

8.  Enter any other information you want.

9.  After entering all of the data you want, press SET to store it in
    memory.

    You can press SET at any point in the above procedure to store the
    data you have entered up to that point.

2.  Press FUNC twice to display the second function menu.

    The labels you create appear as prompts when you are entering
    Telephone Directory data.

    To clear the function menu without selecting anything, press ESC.

4.  Use up arrow and down arrow to move the cursor between the FREE
    labels.

    To cancel the editing operation without making any changes, press

    text you want.

    Labels can be up to 14 characters long.

6.  After making the changes you want, press SET to store them.

Using the Memo Mode

The Memo Mode of the Organizer is like a pad of electronic memo paper
that lets you store information in any format you want.  You can enter
Memo Mode data by adding new memos to end of data already in memory, or
you can insert new memo data between two existing Memo Mode data items.
Each Memo Mode data item can contain up to 384 characters (including
newline symbols).

To enter Memo Mode data

1.  Enter the Memo Mode.  At this time, you could press CLEAR to clear
    the initial Memo Mode screen and change to the memory entry screen.

2.  Enter the first line of memo data you want to store.

    Note that the first line of memo data is treated as the memo's name.
    Because of this, it is a good idea to use a short descriptive title
    as the first line.

3.  Enter the rest of your data.

4.  After entering all of the data you want, press SET to store it in
    memory.

To insert a new Memo Mode data item between two items in memory

1.  Enter the Memo Mode.

2.  Recall the data item you want to come after the new data item you are
    about to enter, and move the name of the data item into the top line
    of the display.

3.  Enter the new data item.

4.  Press SHIFT SET to store the new data item.

    If you press SET without pressing SHIFT, the new data item is
    automatically stored at the end of the data already existing in
    memory.
