= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Bob, when you add a special day for someone in the Address Book, the special day may not be added to the Calendar as expected.

If the Address Book is a shared Address Book, then the special days are added to the Household calendar; however, if the Address Book is private, then the special days are added to the personal calendar.

= MORE INFORMATION =

After you add a special day in the Address book, you receive a balloon containing the following message from your Bob friend:

I’ve noted this person’s special days in this address book.

I’ve also put them on your calendar (or household calendar if this is a shared address book). I will remind you about upcoming special days a week in advance.

To copy the special day to a different calendar

 * 1) In the Calendar, select the event.
 * 2) Click the Special Options squishy.
 * 3) Click the Add This Event To Other People’s Calendars squishy.
 * 4) Select the calendar or calendars to which you would like to add the event.
 * 5) Click the green check mark button.

To open another calendar

 * 1) In the Calendar, click the Other Options squishy.
 * 2) Click the Open Another Calendar squishy.
 * 3) Select the Calendar you want to open.
 * 4) Click the green check mark button.

To check the privacy of the Address Book or to change this option

 * 1) In the Address Book, click the Other Options squishy.
 * 2) Click the Make This Book Private Or Shared squishy.
 * 3) Change the privacy if desired.
 * 4) Click the green check mark button.
