I discovered that the extra tab came up if I saved the Barnes and Noble calendar entry as a file and then imported it to evolution. But it still wasn't entered on the target date. I then switched from Day to List, and the entry showed up along with all the other entries for the same event I thought I had made. I deleted the extra ones and then opened the remaining instance and fiddled with it a bit, and then it showed up on the proper day. There was a bit of trouble opening it because the event had a start date but no end date. I don't really understand what is going on, but in the future I will be able to save an event in my calendar with a little effort. > -- Leonard Evens l...@math.northwestern.edu Professor Emeritus, Department of Mathematics, Northwestern University _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
