Thanks for the info, I'm basically just messing around with the Newton
until I can figure out just how it will work best for me. I didn't
realize that I could do that with names and dates. I also have Avi's
backdrop on there and didn't know that it did that either. Guess I'll
be playing with them a little more now. Thanks
Nick

It's called Names and Dates :)
You put anniversaries/birthdays in Names and it asks you if you want=20
to create the associated annual event in the Dates application.
There are other ways to know about anniversaries (useful if you don't=20
open Dates every day or if you want a look ahead of several days).
Some applications go and look into the Dates database (hence will=20
display only the anniversaries that were associated to an annual=20
event) and some look into the card file database instead. Since 1.27,=20
it is what Avi's Backdrop does. You can find my latest build from my=20
website (http://www.kallisys.com/newton/avibd/), and this is of=20
course what I actually use. I know there are other programs that will=20
for example display birthdays when you power on the Newton. Check=20
UNNA.
http://www.unna.org/unna/utilites/HappyTheBirthdayReminder/ might do it.
