The first step when building a to-do list is to start recording one. Don't groan and roll your eyes, dreading how long this will take. This is really easy, so just relax, and you'll be done in a snap.
Just follow these simple steps:
1. Highlight the Tasks icon and press the trackwheel.
The Tasks application opens. Similar to Address Book and MemoPad, the screen that appears is divided into two parts: The top shows the Find field, and the bottom shows the list of tasks (if there are tasks) or * No Tasks * (if empty).
2. Press the trackwheel and choose New from the Tasks Application menu that appears (as shown on the left in Figure 1).
The New screen appears, as shown on the right side of Figure 1, ready and willing to document your new task. This simple screen features easy-to-understand fields that describe the task you're about to enter.

3. Use your trackwheel to move to each field to enter information for your task.
Some fields are for text that you enter yourself, and some fields hold items you select from a menu specific for that field. In other words, for text fields, you have to type in the stuff you want; but for nontext fields, you select the field, press the trackwheel again, and then select your choice from the Change Option menu that appears. (Pretty convenient, huh?)
To access the Change Option menu, select a field and then press the trackwheel.
4. After filling in the relevant fields, press the trackwheel and choose Save from the Task Application menu that appears.
Doing so saves your task, and you should see the task added to the Tasks list.
