  5. If the scroll bars and arrows to the right of the ‘View Week’ and ‘View Day’ areas do not appear, click your mouse once on the window frame bar of each appointment book displayed. The scroll bars and arrows will then appear.

    TIPS:

    - When two or more appointment books are displayed on screen at the same time, they may be viewing different dates.

    - With more than one appointment book on the screen, sometimes the tool buttons on the bottom of the book may not be displayed correctly. If a button you wish to use is obscured, temporarily maximise the book using the Maximise button button in the upper right corner of the book
