Abstract
A radio selective-calling receiver with a displaying function, which can clearly distinguish the difference between a confirmed message and an unconfirmed message by a user, is provided. A controller makes a memory memorize a newly received message. At the time when the memorized message is read out and is displayed on the displaying section, the controller makes an unconfirmed symbol flash in order to show that the message is an unconfirmed message. At the case that an input of a switch by the user, which is the confirming operation by the user, is not implemented within the predetermined time, the controller sets an automatic informing stop status at the information of automatic informing stop memorizing section in a memory. And the controller also makes a message memorizing section memorize the message as a message having an unconfirmed state. Therefore, at the time when the unconfirmed message is displayed again on the displaying section, the unconfirmed message is displayed with the unconfirmed symbol in a flashing state. With this, the distinction between the confirmed message and the unconfirmed message becomes clear.
