Categorizing records
You can categorize records in Address Book, To Do List, and Memo Pad
applications for easy retrieval. (Date Book does not have categories.) When
you create a record, it is automatically assigned to the currently displayed
category. For example, if the All category is displayed, the record is assigned
to the Unfiled category. A record can remain unfiled or it can be assigned to
a category at any time.
System-defined and user-defined categories
By default, your CLIÉ handheld includes system-defined categories, such as
All and Unfiled, and user-defined categories, such as Business and Personal.
You cannot modify the system-defined categories, but you can rename or
delete the user-defined categories. In addition, you can create your own
user-defined categories. You can have a maximum of 15 user-defined
categories in each application.
Tip
Address Book contains the QuickList user-defined category, in which you can store the
names, addresses, and phone numbers that you might need in emergencies (doctors,
fire department, lawyers, etc.).
