= SYMPTOMS =

When you enter a special event into the Bob Address Book, the event is posted in the Calendar. The entry in the Calendar will begin in 1976 and be posted for each year on the specified date. This will occur even if you specify a starting year for the special event.

For example, if the special event posted in the Address Book is April 21, 1990, this information will appear in the Calendar each year beginning on April 21, 1976.

= RESOLUTION =

To correct the information in the Calendar, do the following:


 * 1) Open the Calendar.
 * 2) Press F5 to see another month or year.
 * 3) Choose 1976 for the year. Choose the month and day of the special event.
 * 4) Click OK.
 * 5) Delete the special event from the Calendar.
 * 6) Press F5 to see another month or year.
 * 7) Go to the year, month, and day, where you want the special event to begin.
 * 8) Click a time slot and enter the information for the special event.
 * 9) Instruct Rover to remind you of the event 1 week in advance.
 * 10) Click Special Options and the click, Have This Event Recur On Your Calendar.
 * 11) Click the box next to Same Date Each Year.
