Korganizer - give a day's preview at boot

SL 9.3, KDE 3.4, Korganizer 3.4

How can I get the day's preview (all tasks, dates ...) in the morning on boot or at a certain time displayed on screen?

You can use the What's Next view in KOrganizer or the Summary component inside Kontact.

Thank you.
My question more precisely:

I want to open up/boot the computer in the morning already displaying the overview for the day by itself without having to start Korganizer or whatever and switch to the 'what's next'-Screen.
I want to turn on the monitor in the morning and have the day's tasks displayed.

Or can I tell Korganizer to show all tasks/dates of the day at 8.00 am as preview for the day? Popup and tell.

I hope I could explain my problem better this time.

You can add Kontact to the autostart applications and tell Kontact it has to initially show you the Summary plugin.

Just drag the Kontact shortcut on your desktop/K-Menu to ~/.kde/Autostart to make it start when you log in. In the Kontact settings you can speicify which component it should load when it starts.

Okay, thank you. This was what I was looking for but not thinking of.
Probably I might as well place a call for kontact in the crontab.
Didn't think of that! Sorry!
