Post-installation instructions

Connecting to a server for the first time with Oracle CorporateTime

If you wish to keep any Entries you have created in an off-line agenda, you must upload your off-line agenda manually after connecting to the server. After uploading, the client will ask you if you wish to replace your off-line agenda with the one that has been synchronized with your server.

A brief guide to the click-and-type Agenda interface

In the day or week view, when the cursor is on the border of an Entry, it is shaped like an arrow. Clicking the Entry selects the event. When the cursor is in the central section of an Entry that is large enough to display text, it will be in the shape of an I-beam. Clicking with this cursor allows you to edit the title. Before entering into the text-edit mode, double-clicking an Entry will open it.

In the text-edit mode, the Enter and Return keys confirm your changes and will create an Entry if one does not already exist. The Escape key will cancel your changes, as will clicking outside the Entry. To bring up the Edit Entry dialog box, type Command-Enter or Command-Return. The Delete key will effect the Entry's title or, to delete the entire Entry, type Command-Delete.

When the Entry is selected, it can be dragged to another date or time, and its time lengthened or shortened. To change the date or time, point the cursor at the border of the Entry and drag it. To lengthen or shorten an Entry, point the cursor at its corner and drag it.
