Lotus Notes 8.x Tips

Your guide to what's great about Notes 8 (and higher)

To help me keep track of to dos, I like to display them on my calendar, and get reminders when they're due soon.

Here's how to dos look on the calendar (in the sidebar):

To display to do items on the calendar, click File > Preferences, click Calendar and To Do, click the Views tab...

...and select Display To Do Entries. You can also choose to display overdue To Do items on the current day.

Then, when you create a to do item with a due date, it will display on the calendar.


To get reminders when To Dos are due soon, click File > Preferences, click Calendar and To Do, click the Alarms tab, and then select To Dos and type how many days before the due date you would like to get a reminder.

[Also, I like using the "tada" sound as my alarm, because it makes me laugh :) ]
