Yvonne, glad you managed to do it at the end.

Here's below a direct link to download that app which Eleanor mentioned

http://www.petnetti.net/lightnotepad/LightNotepad186_newCert.sisx

The page Eleanor provided has good info about the app itself, installation 
instructions and links to download so definitely worth browsing.

Cheers,
Amro

    Hi Yvonne,

      So the issue is essentially that you can't copy and paste, right? If you 
don't have notes/quick word on your phone you can copy from a text message. 
I've just tried it on my e66 just in case and it worked as it should. Try the 
following:
      Open a new message.
      Type income support
      Put the cursor on the first letter i.e. the letter i.
      Bring up the options menu (soft key one) and select editing options 
submenu>copy.
      Press soft key one to start highlighting and then arrow right until the 
phrase (income support) is highlighted.
      Press soft key two to copy.

      Now you should be able to paste (income support) as many times as you 
like any where be it in a memo or any other edit field.

      I hope that works for you.

      Sorry if I sounded snappy in my earlier post. Though I still think, IMHO, 
using the recurring feature in meetings is quicker specially if you are going 
to have this memo repeated every fortnight for the next few months.

      HTH,
      Amro

      hi amro
      for some reason unknown tome there is no quick notes in the n86
      this is unless i have deleted it
      no intention of being demanding so if this is how it comes across to 
others then apologies from me
      i am able to do this on my e90 because i have quick notes installed
      somehow i need to add these words to a text or word document then copy 
and paste
      but without quick notes installed and quick office not able to be used 
because i don't have the license to use it i am stuck for a solution
      i can type it in each entry but that is time consuming
      so i am seeking a way of copying and pasting without the ability of quick 
notes and quick office
      once again apologies if i sound demanding
      i don't intend to be
      Yvonne

        Hi Yvonne, but who cares! I agree, it is not a meeting what you need to 
enter in your calendar but Nokia in their wisdom didn't include a recur feature 
in memos.

        Unless there's something else I am missing here I would say, lets not 
get bogged down in semantics! *smile*

        Cheers,
        Amro

          hi amro
          to a degree
          however it is not a meeting
          it is an event otherwise known as a memo
          so if i can be told how to do this with memo's
          that would solve my query
          thank you
          Yvonne

            Yes Yvonne. Say you want to have a calendar entry that says (income 
support) next Monday and to be repeated every fortnight thereafter. You do thus:

            -open calendar
            -go to the date when you want the reminder to start. That would be 
next Monday January 24 in this example.
            -bring up the options menu and select new entry>meeting. A new 
entry dialog will appear.
            -type subject (that would be income support in this example) then 
arrow down once.
            -choose what time of the day your income support meeting is then 
arrow down four times.
            -press select and choose from the list how long before your meeting 
you want the alarm to sound off. If you don't want to set an alarm for your 
income support meeting ignore this field and leave it set to (off) and arrow 
down once.
            -press select and choose from the list how often you want the 
income support meeting entry to be repeated. In this example you would arrow 
down three times through the list and select fortnightly.
            -set any other fields in the new entry dialog if you wish and once 
finish press key two (done).

            That's it, your income support calendar entry has been set on 
Monday and it will be repeated every fortnight.

            Have I answered your question?

            Amro

              hi
              not sure you follow what i mean here.
              i need to add the same 2 words "income support" to dates 
occurring each fortnight [every 2 weeks]
              if i go to not repeated i cant add the same information can i.
              all i need to do is find a faster way of adding these 2 words 
"income support " to calendar date entries each fortnight
              not keen on typing those 2 words everytime i need to add them to 
a specific date in the calendar
              Yvonne

                I don't think that is the way to do it, creating a note I mean. 
When you are creating a new entry in calendar, one of the fields is entry 
recurring. In the new entry dialog arrow down few times until Talks say (not 
repeated). Hit the select button there and set how often you need that reminder 
to be repeated.

                HTH,
                Amro

                  hi
                  i want to add the same event to my calendar for each month
                  for example income support and d l a dates
                  however i can't seem to be able to do it
                  i can if i want to go down each month and type the 
information in but there must be a faster way
                  i heard that something called notes can do this by adding a 
note and copying it to the clipboard then pasting in to the required date on 
the calendar
                  but i can't find notes
                  .

                  looked in applications and also in tools but nothing saying 
notes
                  can anyone tell me where this application can be found?
                  i am using a nokia n86

                  also would anyone know of another way to do this?
                  i did try composing a text message but when i copied it and 
pasted it all i got was my phone number so that didn't work
                  thank you
                  Yvonne
