Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for associating scheduled events with other scheduled events and with electronic documents is provided. A user interacts with user interface controls on a computer display to specify a plurality of scheduled events. The user interface controls allow the user to specify that one or more electronic documents are related to each event, and that one or more other events are related to each event. Data representing the events and the associations between the events and electronic documents is stored on a storage device. User interface controls are provided which allow a user to see a list of the events and/or the documents that are related to a particular event. When a user changes the schedule of an event that has related events, a warning indication is generated to remind the user that the schedules of the related events may also have to be changed.
