To edit a Task date
This is a little bit tricky, since every time you click the Calendar control, the program
assumes you are ADDING a new date
You can have multiple Dates for a task.
However, in my groundwork for this Vegetables Project, multiple dates (e.g. for a second
sowing) is unsuitable for our application, due to the Events we wish to record later in the project.
Basically, the rule is - only use Multiple Dates within one task when absolutely necessary.
One example is a Spray program for Roses.
We are restricting our task to ONE date. If that date slips, you need to reschedule
Heres how to change a Task Date
- In GA047S01, click the Dates/Notes button
- Screen GA047S04 appears
Screenshot on entry
Note the caption which says Existing Task Date
(its just above the Alert Days field)
- Heres the button sequence to change the date:
- 1) Click a date on the Calendar Control
Use the calendar control to change to a different month if necessary
Note how the caption now says NEW Task Date
Screenshot
In this exercise, we dont want to add a new task date, we wish to change the existing date
- 2) Click the task date in the Task Do Dates/Alert Days list
This puts this date (and our task notes, and our Alert Days) into Edit mode
Screenshot
- 3) Click the Arrow which points left inside the Change Task Date box
This saves our Task Date
To edit your Date Notes and/or your Alert Days
Its the same screens as described for changing a Task Date
- In GA047S01, click the Dates/Notes button
- Screen GA047S04 appears
Screenshot
- Click the task date in the Task Do Dates/Alert Days list
This puts this date (and our task notes, and our Alert Days) into Edit mode
- Edit your notes, or edit your Task Days
- Click the Save button
This saves a) any editing you have done to your Date Related Notes
and b) any change you have made to the Alert Days
To delete a Task Date
- In GA047S01, click the Dates/Notes button
- Screen GA047S04 appears
- For this exercise, we will create a second (dummy) Task date, then describe how to delete it
Screenshot
- 1) Click on a new date in the Date control
- 2) Enter some text in the Date Notes field (optional)
- 3) Click the Save button
- We now have two Task Date records
Now to delete that 2nd Task Date record as a demonstration
- Click the task date in the Task Do Dates/Alert Days list
This puts this Task Date record into Edit mode
Screenshot
- Click the button with the Trash Can icon
- You are asked to Confirm that you wish to delete the record
