to schedule an event for the current day:
1. tap the time line that corresponds to the beginning of the event or tap new.
2. enter a description of the event. you can enter up to 255 characters.
3. if the event is one hour long, skip to step 5. if the event is longer or shorter than an hour, tap the time of the event to open the set time dialog box.
tip you can also use the graffiti 2 input area to open the set time dialog box. make sure that no event is selected, and then on the number side of the graffiti 2 input area, write a number for the start time of the event.
4. do one of the following:
(1) tap the time columns on the right side of the set time dialog box to set the start time, and then tap the end time box and tap the time columns to set the end time.
(2) tap all day to automatically insert the start and end time of the event as defined in your calendar preferences.
5. tap ok.
6. tap a blank area of the screen to deselect the event. a vertical line appears next to the time, indicating the duration of the event.
if two or more events have the same start and end time, the time appears only once.
you can schedule events that span midnight so that they appear in the list of events for two days. an event spanning midnight is automatically created when your end time precedes a start time. an event spanning midnight cannot be longer than 24 hours.
to schedule an event for another day:
1. select the date you want for the event by doing one of the following:
(1) tap the day of the week that you want in the date bar at the top of the screen. if necessary, tap the previous week or next week scroll arrows to move to another week.
(2) press right or left on the navigator to scroll to the next or previous day.

to schedule an untimed event:
1. select the date that you want for the event.
2. tap new.
3. tap no time, so that no start or end times are defined for the new event.
tip you can also create a new untimed event by making sure no event is selected and then writing letters in the graffiti 2 input area.
