custom datasource events

   Hi, I'm just getting started with Xtreme Calendar. I was wondering how the calendar control expects the data to be returned from the custom datasource events. For instance when implementing the DoReadEvent method. I would expect to write something like this (pseudocode):

Private Sub CalendarControl1_DoReadEvent(ByVal EventID As Long, pEvent As XtremeCalendarControl.CalendarEvent)

read recordset for event with id EventID
dim objCalendarEvent as calendarevent
Set objCalendarEvent = new calendarevent
set objcalendarevent properties
.
.
.
.
end properties

set pEvent = objCalendarevent

End Sub

instead, the only way to create a calendarevent object seems to be by referencing the dataprovider object in the calendar control itself.
If this is the case intentionally, how should I go about creating the object? should I use the createeventex method and presumably thereby add it to the calendar's collection of events? If so, why include pEvent as an argument?

Are there any examples of these custom events already being implemented anywhere?

Thanks,
Richard.
