REMIND Usage Notes

You must place the reminder message to be sent in the CA WA CA 7 Edition active area before entering the REMIND command. You can accomplish this through the EDIT command using the INSERT subcommand. After entering the text, the SAVE subcommand places the text in the active area. Then you can enter the REMIND top line command. If you enter a REMIND command with a date and time that has already passed, the reminder message is issued immediately. Also, you can review the message with the LRMD command.

The reminder remains in the CA WA CA 7 Edition preprocess queue, with a job name in the format RMD#nnnn, until a LOGOUT or CANCEL is entered. When the reminder is issued at the specified time-of-day (or immediately as just described), it is reissued for each reprompt cycle until a LOGOUT or CANCEL is done.
