Daynote Details

---

• Clicking a date opens a note window for that specific date. Dates with notes are colorized. Daynotes marked as Keepers, created via the holidays function or from the event window, can be identified with a different color.  Use Control-click on the calendar to pick colors for these varieties of daynotes. DayNotes are automatically saved when their window is closed or upon quitting.  
• Clicking a date opens an existing note or creates a new one.
• No limit on a daynote's size or how many are created.
• To delete notes do a Select All (CMD-A), backspace delete the  text and close the  daynote window. If it worked, the color of the date should disappear. Use the preference setting to delete daynotes older than "xx" days. Deletion of daynotes  based on this preference is done automatically when CCN X starts. Weekly view &  List view also have a convenient way to delete daytnotes. The keeper checkbox overrides the preference option controlling automatic deletion and always keeps the daynote regardless of age. Note:  daynotes are AUTOMATICALLY kept for the time period specified in the preferences dialog without checking the KEEP box.
• Multiple daynotes may be open simultaneously, but you can't open the same date in two windows.
• Edit Copy/Paste/Cut fonts and colors are supported in this window. Each note may only have one font size and one color
• PRINT in the FILE menu will print the daynote that is open and active (front window).
• EXPORT DAYNOTES TO TEXT FILE option on the daynote menu sends a copy of all your daynotes to a text file . Some customers wanted to be able to archive notes, and then delete them within CCN X in order to keep their number of daynotes  to a minimum
• EXPORT DAYNOTES TO iCal Format option on the daynote menu creates an iCalendar format file that may be imported into iCal or Outlook on Window. The export and subsequent import was tested successfully with Outlook 2003 on Windows and iCal 2.03 under OS X 10.4.6
• US holidays/events, when inserted, do not overwrite an existing daynote for a  date. Also, a warning is given if holiday daynotes have already been added for the  year chosen. Holidays are: New Year's Day, President's Day, Easter, Start and End  of DayLight Saving Time, Memorial Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Independence  Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas
• Search within daynotes. Need to find all daynotes referring to Aunt Joan?  This will find them.
• Daynotes can be spell checked using the button on the bottom of the daynote window. Please note: this uses the Apple Spell Check Engine. If the results look incorrect, start a new document within Apple's Mail program (or TextEdit) and type the word in and the result should be the same. The spell checker assumes some words are just acronyms while others (such as "ddd") are mysteriously not flagged as misspelled.
• Control clicking the text on a daynote window brings up a contextual menu to select the color of the text in the daynote. Daynote text is all the same color. The color selected for the daynote text is controlled separately from the date color on the calendar window.
