Reminders

The Reminders part of VBSys is a simple reminders program. It is to remind you when you have an appointment or occasion such as family birthdays etc.. coming up. You should set the reminder by adding a reminder that will tell you before the time it is due. Set the time and reminder info. If it is an annual recurring event such as Birthdays, etc.. set it for recurring and that way VBSys will automatically add it to next year after you are reminded this year. If your computer is off while a reminder is due, no problem; VBSys will check for all past due reminders again when it is started. (If Reminder checking is on).VBSys will check for past due reminders at the interval that you have selected in the options window. If you use a lot of reminders, then set it to check every 5 minutes. If you have only birthday type reminders, etc.. then once per hour is enough. VBSys will check for Past Due reminders meaning that if you want to be told about a doctor appointment at 2:00 PM, Do NOT set the reminder for 2:00PM, you need to set it earlier like 1:00PM and put in the info about the reminder that you have an appointment at 2:00. Otherwise, VBSys wonÆt find the reminder until it is past due. When it finds a Past Due reminder, it will show it to you. At that time you should click for the details and then either Sleep the reminder to a later date or click finished. The reminder you were looking at will then be deleted unless it was set for a yearly recurring reminder in which case it will be added to next year.
