Abstract
An electronic calendaring method for use in a data processing system in which calendar entries that have been made for the same time span independently on two different copies of the calendar can be automatically and interactively reconciled. The method permits a calendar owner to obtain a machine readable transportable copy of his calendar on a diskette, to update that copy when the master copy is not available to him because of a business trip, for example, and upon his return to automatically and interactively reconcile the updated entries that have been made to both copies so that at least one of them reflects the correct status of calendered events for that owner.
