Birthdays in Calendar Vikram Tayde 07-16-2006

 Hi Folks,

I have a VOQ SmartPhone running Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition. The
problem is that when I add birthdays of my Contacts, they don't show up in
the Calendar on my phone as they do in Outlook on my desktop computer
running Windows XP. Is there a setting which I need to turn on so show
birthdays and anniversaries in the Calendar on my phone or this feature is
simply not present in Windows Mobile 2003?

 I don't believe the feature of adding birthdays to the contact and having
them show up on the calendar exists on the phone. If you sync the phone with
Outlook though, typically the added birthday in the contact will be sync'd
to the desktop, Outlook will make the calendar entry, and that will sync
back, so it looks to most as if the entry was made on the phone itself. Is
that not working?

Hello,

If you use Spb Diary, it will allow for birthdays and anniversaries to be
displayed on the calendar. You can read a review of Spb Diary on my site at
http://www.clintonfitch.com/reviews/spb/diary-1-7/default.asp and can get
more information from Spb at http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com.

Regards,

Doh! Just realized I was posting in the Smartphone group, not the Pocket PC
group! Sorry 'bout that....

I don't believe this can be done on Smartphones.
