Creating Tasks

To create a new task:

1. Click on a category tab; then click a date range tab.

Definition: A date range is the time-frame during which you hope to do a particular task (as opposed to duration). For example, “call Sam” may have a range of “this week” because I’d like to call sometime this week.

Hint: You can also select a custom range by highlighting a range in the Range Selector. Click the arrows to switch months:

2. Click on the text-field, enter a task name, and press ENTER or click .

3. A small window automatically pops-up. Select Hours and Minutes with your mouse or type the duration directly into the duration field. For a full day event, check Full –day event. Then click OK.

Definition: Duration is the actual time required to perform the task.
