Using the Calendar

To show the Calendar, click the Calendar button in the Navigation pane. The view window shows the Calendar itself, and we’ll get to that in a moment. The top section of the Navigation pane shows a small calendar of the current month, called the Date Navigator, which has several useful features, as shown in Figure 30-1 and described in the following list:

  • You can click any day number to change the Calendar view accordingly.
