44 Chapter 3 Using the Address Book and iCal Libraries
You can use the records in the iCal Events and iCal Tasks libraries just like the records
in any other libraries and collections in Bento. The only difference is that changes in
the iCal Events and iCal Tasks libraries update the information in the iCal application.
Note: Bento does not display information from the subscribed calendars in the iCal
application.
Bento Event Fields That Update the iCal Application
The following fields in the Bento iCal Events library update the iCal application.
1 All Day
1 Calendar
1 End date
1 Location
1 Note
1 Start date
1 Title
1 URL
Note: In the iCal application, the “URL” field is a text field. In order to correctly display
this value in Bento, the iCal Events library uses a text field as well, rather than using a
Bento URL field.
You can add other fields to your event records in Bento, but your additional fields do
not update the iCal application. See
Chapter 7, “Using Fields,” for information on
adding fields.
Bento Task Fields That Update the iCal Application
The following fields in the Bento iCal Task library update the iCal application.
1 Calendar
1 Completion date
1 Due date
1 Note
1 Priority
1 Title
1 URL
Note: In the iCal application, the “URL” field is a text field. In order to correctly display
this value in Bento, the iCal Tasks library uses a text field as well, rather than using a
Bento URL field.
You can add other fields to your task records in Bento, but your additional fields do
not update the iCal application. See
Chapter 7, “Using Fields,” for information on
adding fields.
