    Posted: 16 May 2006 at 10:39am

I am trying to retrieve a custom property when an event is double-clicked in the calendar.

The following code set-ups up the example event

Dim NewEvent As CalendarEvent, Recurrence As CalendarRecurrencePattern

NewEvent = AxCalendarControl1.DataProvider.CreateEvent

NewEvent.Subject = "Valuation of 51 Adelphi Street, Campbell Park"

NewEvent.StartTime = #5/15/2006 3:00:00 PM#

NewEvent.EndTime = #5/15/2006 4:00:00 PM#

NewEvent.BusyStatus = CalendarEventBusyStatus.xtpCalendarBusyStatusBusy

NewEvent.Description = "Some nice notes here..."

NewEvent.Location = "Campbell Park"

NewEvent.Label = 1

NewEvent.CustomProperties.Property("diaryId") = 14

AxCalendarControl1.DataProvider.AddEvent(NewEvent)

xCalendarControl1.Populate()

 

And this is the sub routine that is called on the double-click

 

Private Sub AxCalendarControl1_DblClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AxCalendarControl1.DblClick

Dim HitTest As CalendarHitTestInfo

HitTest = AxCalendarControl1.ActiveView.HitTest

If HitTest.ViewEvent Is Nothing Then

Dim frmDiaryEntry As frmDiaryEntry = New frmDiaryEntry

frmDiaryEntry.Text = "New Diary Entry"

frmDiaryEntry.Show()

Else

Dim frmDiaryEntry As frmDiaryEntry = New frmDiaryEntry

MessageBox.Show(HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.CustomProperties("di aryId"))

frmDiaryEntry.DiaryEntryId = HitTest.ViewEvent.Event.CustomProperties("diaryId")

frmDiaryEntry.Show()

End If

 

End Sub

Problem is I never get the correct value for the custom property. Instead I get a seemingly random 8 digit number!

How can I retrieve the custom property that I'm setting above sucessfully?

thanks.

If your value DiaryEntryId is declared as Integer, it should be working just fine.

Also, second string should look like:
Set NewEvent = AxCalendarControl1.DataProvider.CreateEvent

Do you use VB6?

Should be, but it doesn't

I'll try get a simple example project to demonstrate up here.

I'm programming in vb.net... but have seen the vb6 example project and am using it for reference.

OK, here is an example vb.net project demonstrating the error I'm coming across.

Could you please take a look and see what the problem might be?

Many thanks

hmmm, your sample works pretty fine for me.
when I'm double clicking events, message box displays numbers 1, 2, 3 correspondingly.

I'll look further but could you please clarify what is your environment? windows version? locale? any other details?

Weird hey! At least my code was correct...

I'm running Windows XP Pro with SP2 and god knows how many random Microsoft updates! .Net 2.0 installed. UK English settings.

Developing in Visual Studio 2003, using Sql Server 2005.

When I click on any calendar entry I get "Hit: 33619969"

Hi,

I believe this problem is already fixed in 10.2 which has been released recently.

I'm running Xtreme Suite ActiveX v9.81, how can I get hold of the fixed version?

My product downloads have expired etc and I really want a working version!

hi glennj,

Please submit a request to get fixed version to IssueTrack support area, and I'll attach fixed version for you there.

Excellent, I now have the latest version of the controls and it works perfect...

So on to another question

Rather than remove my controls and add them again using the latest version (which would cause a headache), what is the simplest way up upgrading my VB.Net project to use the latest version of the controls?

I presume I remove the references and re-add them... but what would the correct reference be for the controls? If I simply select the Calendar control from the COM list it doesn't work, and doesn't look like the same file (in fact there were 2 references before).

thanks again

After you installed a new version and opened your project in VB.NET environment, it should ask you something like: "A component has a newset version, would you like to upgrade your solution?", and pressing "Yes" would resolve this problem...

Otherwise, you can reinsert the control under the same name after adding a new version to the toolbox.

And the last solution is to ask for an upgrade utility in support area
