Printing the Month View

To print the month view, proceed as follows:

1. Display the month on your screen.

2. Press ALT+PRTSC to capture the month into the clipboard.

3. Open Windows Paintbrush, and paste the month view in. Be sure to maximize Paintbrush before pasting, or some of the calendar may be truncated.

Printing Blank Appointment Schedule Times

Calendar only prints appointment schedule times that have appointment entries. To force Calendar to print a "blank" appointment entry, enter a space on each time line that you want to print.

Printing Headers and Footers

Calendar can also print headers and footers that contain text and special codes that insert the following information:

   Code    Information

   &d      The current date
   &p      Page numbers
   &f      The current filename
