Hi there,

I was just wondering is there any way to setup a floating task in Blackberry? I know this was very popular in Palm but not sure if Blackberry has a similar thing? Maybe even an application to replicate this feature would be very helpful . Thanks.

I don't know. Would you define a floating task?

By the way, see the aftermarket forum and the third-party software list at Main Page - BlackBerryFAQ for some leads.

Otherwise, there is sure to be someone come along who knows the exact answer.

Thanks for the replay. Sorry I should have clarified. Floating Task is when you set up a task or appointment in the calendar and if you go beyond the date it carries over to the next day. Example:

I need to call Jessica on Monday at 6 PM but I forget it then reminds me again on Tuesday of this appointment.

Thanks.

I've emailed rim before to request this type of thing be built into calendar. I use the "all day event" as a loose end list of things I need to do each day that don't have a time. I never complete them all each day and I'd love to have them float forward.

In order to get a task to show up in the calendar, you must give it a time due. If this time comes and goes w/o you closing it then it should show that it is not completed. This isn't the same as what you wont but it will show up as not completed if you goto the Task screen and there you can reassign a date. I too, used to have a Palm and it's PDA features were far superior. Hopefully RIM will catch up of some these features.
