Hi Terry,
Try this and see if it works for you. Go to the main menu, I'm giving
BT commands because that's what I know, Space with dots 1,2,3,4,5,6.
Press P for Planner.
Press O for open.
Now, you are presented with today's date. You have two options. You may
enter the date you wish, EX. January 18, 2004 as follows, "#01#18#2004"
minus the quotes. Now, I have my Braille Note set to U.S. date format, so
if yours isn't set that way, you'd have to enter the #18 first, then #01, I
think.
Your other option is to move to the next year by pressing space with
dots 5,6. Then, you would need to press Dot 1 with the space to move back
in months until you got to January.
Now, I should have prefaced all of this by saying I am running Keysoft
Version 4.01, so don't know about Keysoft 5.0.
I think you may also be able at the open planner prompt to simply
advance by month, not from within the actual planner.
I hope this hasn't confused you more!
Sarah
