Adding an alternative calendar to your Application List

The calendar that is first displayed when you enter the Calendar is specified by the name in the ``Startup'' field on the Preferences form; this is normally set to your own calendar. See ``Setting calendar preferences''.

Additionally, you can use the procedure described in this section to specify a different initial calendar.

To specify another initial calendar, edit the entry for the Calendar program on the SCO Shell's Application list. (For detailed instructions, see ``Adding an application to the list'' .)

Select Options -> Applist -> Edit and select Calendar from the list of applications displayed. Add one of the following options to the entry in the ``Path Name'' field:

Option Description
-i calendar_name Substitute calendar_name for the name of the calendar in the ``Startup'' field of the Options -> Preferences
menu.
-r calendar_name Substitute calendar_name for the name of the calendar in the ``Startup'' field of the Options -> Preferences
menu, but display as ``read only;'' you cannot add, change or delete any information.

For example, to display user alice's calendar when you first enter the Calendar program, change the ``Path Name'' entry to:

Path Name: [$OALIB/calendar -i alice ]

To display the calendar for sales as read only when you first enter the Calendar program, change the ``Path Name'' entry to:

Path Name: [$OALIB/calendar -r sales ]

You can also create an additional entry in the ``Application List'' to start a different calendar such as a departmental calendar or one that you are responsible for scheduling. To do this, select:

Options -> Applist -> Add -> Select

To add the option needed to access the additional calendar, select:

Options -> Applist -> Edit
