Carry-forward ToDo's; Displaying all of your uncompleted ToDo's (95LX) (100/200LX)

All HP Palmtops let you check off a ToDo, indicating that it is done (highlight the ToDo and press (<Spacebar>)). ToDo's that have not been checked off automatically carry forward to the next day's ToDo list.

On the HP 95LX

Enter a ToDo in the 95LX (don't check it off). Then go to tomorrow's (or any subsequent day's) ToDo list and you'll see a list containing any uncompleted ToDo.

To get a total list of all uncompleted ToDo's, go to a date in the future (e.g. a year from now) and display its ToDo list. You'll see any ToDo you have not checked off as completed.

On the HP 100/200LX

The 100/200LX carries uncompleted ToDo's forward a little differently. Enter a ToDo into today's ToDo list (don't check it off). Now go to tomorrow's ToDo list and, viola, the ToDo is not there!

The 100/200LX only displays an uncompleted ToDo in a future ToDo list when that day arrives (I.e. when the 100/200LX's internal system clock says it's that date).

The easiest way to see a list of uncompleted and upcoming ToDo's is print them to a file and view it in MEMO. Follow these steps:

1. 1. In APPT press (MENU) File Print to go to the Print dialog screen.
2. 2. Then press These Items (<Tab>), use the arrow keys to select ToDo's.
3. 3. Press (<Tab>), key in the starting date of the list. Press (<Tab>) again and key in the ending date.
4. 4. Press (ALT) File to select Print to File and press (F10). When prompted, give the file name and press (F10) again.
5. 5. Open MEMO and load the file for viewing.
