I am looking for a (hopefully) Free 'Organiser' program - Any ideas

Hi - I'm not sure if this is the right board, but I am looking for a good organiser programme for my laptop.
I know that there are organisers within the MS Office software, but I did once see one that looked, and behaved, like the now old fashioned 'filofax'.
All ideas gratefully accepted - Thanks.

If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

this program used to look and behave like a 'filofax' and came with the Lotus Smartsuite collection of applications (Lotus' version of Microsoft Office).
It used to be shipped with many an old IBM desktop or laptop so many people may have a copy 'lying' around. (ibm info at world-wide-web-01-dot-ibm-dot-com-slash-software-slash-lotus-slash-products-slash-organizer
but alas, it's not free from IBM online!0 -

I have downloaded the latest free version - 2.81.
Seems to be just the ticket - thanks again. :T :TI am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
