Categories on Calendar

[Dennis Hughes]

When I make a calendar entry, there is a categories box at the bottom that
is the same as in email. This makes sense in email, but how is this used in
the calendar mode?

Thanks,

Dennis

You use it any way you want to. Some people use it to distinguish work and
personal appointments, so they can create views filtered on each category
and thus print out separate work and personal calendars.

In the same way but not so commonly used. Here are some ideas:

You may want to file all meetings about a specific project in a folder for
that project so categorising them would help you.

You may want to find a specific meeting by it's project area - category.

You may want to print a table of all meetings of a certain category.

Now I understand how the categories can be used.
