Categorizing records
You can categorize records in the Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad,
and Expense applications for easy retrieval. (The 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.
Each application has a default set of categories:
The Address Book includes a Business, Personal, and QuickList
category.
The To Do List includes a Business, Personal, and All category.
The Expense application includes a New York, Paris, and All
category.
