A. You have not set your schedule days correctly. Highlight all the days you want to view in the Schedule tab of the Configuration screen.
A. Usually this means that you have set the "Show current time" or "Show current items options". If so turn them off.

A. Change your short date format in the Windows Regional Settings control panel. On Windows XP it is in the Regional and Language Options control panel. (Start | Control panel | Regional and Language Options | Customize | Date) Instead of using dd use ddd. eg. MM/ddd/yyyy
A. In your configuration screen, in the Date/Time tab, what is the Schedule end date? It is probably earlier than today. Unset the Default end Date option and then set the Schedule end date setting to a date in the future like five years from now.
A. Possibly you have selected a Category filter on this one machine that is not "All" or blank and this category has no people associated with it.
A.
The auto-fill is working just as it was intended to. You can press the Delete key to remove the auto-filled text you don't need.A. The number of people and clients are limited only by your file system. NTFS allows data files of only 4 GB. So assuming a person record is 100 KB you could have about 42,000 person records in Windows XP.
A. If the person out in the field has Internet access you could use either the Web edition or the Client/Server edition to remotely access the schedule.
A. Change the group name in the Configuration screen. Then in the Data Manager do a search and replace on the Person field of the Appointments table.
A. You can try the following:
1. If you have the Standard edition, install the program on every user's machine and point to only the data on a shared network location instead of merely using a short-cut to a network install.
2. If using the Standard edition with multiple installs make sure the Data Location setting is identical on all installs by using mapped drives or UNC paths. See the following video tutorial for an example: Sharing file server application data with multiple users (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weANU7M72mQ).
3. Frequently archive old appointments using the Data Manager.
4. Set a default end date to a closer date, for example one year from today.
5. If you use the Auto Refresh feature, set it higher, e.g. 300 (5 minutes).
6. For non-enterprise editions, turn off anti-virus software, or configure it to NOT scan *.EDB* files (.DAT, .IDX, .BLB files on older versions) (or simply your database folder).
7. Use a wired network instead of wireless which is much slower.
8. For non-enterprise editions, upgrade to v7 which uses a more efficient database engine.
9. If you have the Standard edition consider upgrading to the Client/Server edition.
10. If you use the Enterprise edition ask your DBA to optimize indexes for best performance.
