Appeal No. 96-2745
Application No. 08/114,979
23, all of the claims pending in the present application.
The invention relates to a computerized scheduler
which tracks appointments. The computer displays the
appointments and a calendar concurrently in such a way that
data can be inserted into the scheduler while the calendar
remains active, and vice versa. Hence, there is no need to
reactivate a particular view in order to manipulate its
contents because both remain active or receptive to immediate
input at all times. Referring to Appellants' Figure 3a, a one
month calendar (C) is displayed in area Ac with the selected
day (b) highlighted, and a schedule (S) is displayed in area
As. Both the calendar and schedule are active and receptive
to immediate input.
Representative claim 1 is reproduced as follows:
1. A method for controlling a scheduler on a
computer display of a pen based computer system, the method
comprising the steps of:
displaying a one-month calendar in a calendar
area on the computer display of said pen-based computer
system;
selecting at least one date on said calendar by
engaging a stylus with said computer display over said at
least one date to indicate at least one date to be displayed
in a schedule;
