          Application 08/138,650                                                      



               grouping means for grouping one or more events into a                  
          said task;

               selection means coupled to the display means for                       
          selecting                                                                   
          a subset of said tasks for presentation by the display means.               
          The examiner relies on the following reference:                             
          Weiss et al. (Weiss)         5,363,315          Nov. 08, 1994               
          (filed June 30, 1992)                                                       
          Claims 1-9 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) as                       
          being anticipated by the disclosure of Weiss.                               
          Rather than repeat the arguments of appellants or the                       
          examiner, we make reference to the brief and the answer for                 
          the respective details thereof.                                             


          OPINION                                                                     
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                          
          appeal, the rejection advanced by the examiner and the                      
          evidence of anticipation relied upon by the examiner as                     
          support for the rejection.  We have, likewise, reviewed and                 
          taken into consideration, in reaching our decision, the                     
          appellants’ arguments set forth in the brief along with the                 

                                          3
