Richard,

Let's look at both cases here--when you are rescheduling an appointment within 
the same year of the original appointment, and when you wish to reschedule it 
in the following year.  Your appointment recurs every three weeks.  For the 
sake of illustration, let's say the next schedule is on December 1, 2003.

You now wish to reschedule that appointment to December 22, 2003, which is 
three weeks after December 1.  What do you do?
  1) You go to December 1, 2003 and position the cursor on the appointment to 
be rescheduled.
  2) You press BACKSPACE with R (CTRL with R).
  3) You press SPACE with dot 5 (READ with L) three times to move three weeks 
forward, and you will find yourself on December 22, 2003.  Hit Enter.
  4) You are asked for the scheduled time, and you can either just press ENTER 
to accept the old schedule or type a new one and hit ENTER.  The BN will 
confirm that the appointment has been rescheduled and places you on that 
rescheduled date.

Now, you wish to reschedule the next occurrence of the appointment, which would 
be three weeks afterward--January 12, 2004, a very beautiful day when a very 
beautiful woman in the Philippines was born and named Roselle, <laugh> (and you 
thought I just chose the dates in this example randomly, LOL).  How do you 
reschedule the appointment this time?
  1) While still on December 22, 2003, press SPACE with E (ESCAPE).  You will 
be exited from the planner file, but not the Keyplan Menu, and will only be 
returned to the calendar.
  2) As before, press SPACE with dot 5 (READ with L) three times to move three 
weeks forward, and you will be on that special day when Roselle's friends on 
this mailing list are expected to send her expensive presents and call her up, 
<wink>.  Press ENTER.
  3) You are back in the planner file, but this time, it's the file for 2004.  
Press BACKSPACE with S (CTRL with S) and then ENTER.  You will be asked for the 
schedule time, and nothing will be offered, so you must type it in and hit 
ENTER.
  4) You will be asked for the title of the appointment and you must enter it 
as before, not forgetting to include the phrase, "Roselle's birthday", 
mwahahaha.  Finally, you are asked if you wish to set an alarm, and you can 
answer yes or no.  If you type Y for yes, then just follow the subsequent 
prompts.

As redundantly pointed out for the past couple of days, there is currently no 
way to simply reschedule an appointment in one year to a date in another year.  
This is because, if you noticed, dates in the planner file include only the 
month and the day, but not the year, since Keyplan treats each year as a 
separate planner file.  Thus, when you get to December 31 of a certain year, 
you can no longer move forward from within that year's planner file, and would 
only get an error tone, just as what you'd hear if you insist on moving forward 
within a Keyword document when your cursor is already at the bottom of the file.

Therefore, you must select from the calendar the rescheduled date by first 
exiting the planner file of the old year.  If you wish to reschedule the 
appointment from the most wonderful day of January 12, for instance, you can 
use the first set of steps I have enumerated above.

Hope this helps and has dropped enough hints for those whom i'm targeting, heh 
heh, just teasing,
Roselle
