Diary reminders
Fri, 11/13/2009 - 08:16Hi everyone,
Anyone having trouble setting up to have reminders from your diary sent to your phone by text message? If your cell phone carrier is not there, let us know and we'll try to get it added. If it's there but not working right, let us know that too so we can fix it for you. I've found the reminder system great - every day I get text and email reminders about my medicines and then when doctor appts are coming up. Certainly helps me!
Hope rest is going ok and you've had a chance to start a diary. Let me know if you have any trouble or just have questions! When you have a doctor's appointment, don't forget to print out a report and take it to him or her. I'd love to hear if it's helpful or not!
Take care and have a great day!

When I made it for specific dates approx. 6 weeks, it was 2 pages of information, it did not include the 2 pages. I changed the size of the print and it included more data but not the whole thing so I was able to copy the info., so in way it really helps all you have to do is copy it. I am in the process of upgrading my computer w/ the Microsoft Windows 7. I had the old Microsoft program Windows of a few years ago not the most recent and now I am going to upgrade w/ 7. That maybe the problem! My husband has all the fancy upgrades! I listen to his reaction and I feel this new upgrade is a lot better.
Thanks,
Tonialpha

Thanks for this reminder note! I forgot to answer this part of the question! Under Reports, you can set the time frame of your report by putting in the start date and end date. It should give you a printout of everything entered in your diary during that time frame. However, if you just started the diary it will only go back to the time you started the diary. Give it a try and please let me know if any trouble with this.
Glad you like the diary!
