How to use lists...

Post by bobmac1547 »

There is a feature in EPIM that looks interesting/promising, however, I have no idea how to use it...

All my tasks are in "List 1" but there's apparently a number of lists that can be created. (What's the limit?)

How are these used? I cannot find any info in Help or on this Forum.

There's no limit and you can create a different set of tasks for each of the lists, if needed.

Can someone share with me how they use these lists? I'm not sure how to use them.

1. Personal
2. Professional
3. Meeting Notes

1&2 - a simple case where it is helpful to keep categories of tasks separate.

3 - imagines a recurring meeting where tracking and maintaining the date as a primary reference is important; might also include linked attendees and other data.

Thanks rick.ca...
I figured as much, but, since I'm retired, I don't have the situations of #1 and #2. And I'm reluctant to create other lists due to their not being "in my face" to make sure I do them.

Frankly, since retiring, I've been busier than ever. I wonder how I even had time to work. :lol:

1. Want to do.
2. Why do I do these things?
3. My bird watching diary.

Now you're talking... :wink:

How about...
1. Want to do
2. Don't want to do
3. Not a chance I'll ever do it
4. What was I thinking of?
