Hi on the jfwlite programs page, there's a program called, alarm 95, it may
just do what your looking for.
Alarm 95.
It is very straightforward, you basically hit enter four times, and then you
can
close the open folders with alt f4. One of the questions asks if you want
to
place the program in your start up folder, that way it will always be
running
when you boot your machine, the program has to be running to let you know
about scheduled events when they occur. If you go into View (alt v) from
your menu bar, then O for options, you can check it "start minimized" and
"auto
minimize after alarm". After you first install it, you can start it by
going to
your start menu, programs, it will be under the Parsons technology menu,
alarm
95. Once you have it installed and have it running, Press control N to add
a
new alarm, you can select a date, time, and description for the appointment.
To set a recurring alarm, after you do a control N for a new alarm, after
you set up the date and time, for example if you set up an alarm today to go
off tomorrow September 28th at 12 pm, then tab to the recurring button and
press enter. Then tab once and you will be on the daily field, if you arrow
up and down you will have radio buttons for daily, weekly, monthly, yearly.
So after you have tabbed once and you are on daily, arrow down to monthly.
Then tab once and you will be where you can set various options for a
monthly
event. When you first tabbed over from the monthly radio button, you will
be in
a field where you can set it for every so many months, leave that at one,
for
once a month. If you tab one more time you are at a radio button that is
default checked to allow you to specify something like the first Monday of
each
month. But what you want to do, is arrow up once and you will have set a
radio
button that if you tab once, will let you enter a specific date, for example
the
28th.
