Better calendar search?

[Guest SpaceRain]

My dad replaced his Palm with an IPAQ 6915 and he's generally very happy with it, but there's one feature he's missing, that his Palm had: He wants to be able to search his calendar. He wants to be able to search for when he last went to the dentist or what day he's going to that concert he's going to in about 6 months.

On the Palm, he could just search for "dentist" or "concert" and it would list those appointments and what days he had them in the past/will have them in the future, but we can't find a way to do this on his IPAQ. I keep telling him: "Dad, it's like a paper calendar, you can look up by date, but you can't look up by appointment, you'll just have to flip through it, checking each day until you find it!" and he goes: "But this is supposed to be more clever than a paper calendar!" and I guess he's right about that.

Do you know if there exists something that provides a better calendar search? I can only find "SBSH PocketBreeze" and it looks like it replaces the calendar entirely and we're not looking for that. He's happy with the calendar, he would just like to be able to search it. :)

Thank you for your time.
