Calendar Control Using Sybase

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

     We are in the process of evaluvating the calendar control product and we are really close in finishing the testing. We tested XML as our DATA provider and it works great.

      Now we are trying to use our Sybase Database to talk with a table. My question is after I set the statement SETDATAPROVIDER nothing happens in the populating the events by calling the function populate.

        Does developer need to populate all the events manuall in calendarevent in order to show it to the calendar control. 

       What I thought is, If we use custom DSN only create, delete and other stuff need to do programatically by developer. Is populating the events in each cell in calendar control need to done by developer.

        If yes for the above question, which event do i need to use to populate the events in each cell.

    Please help me in regards this
Karthik

	Hi Serge, Thanks for the reply. That article was really great in understanding the concepts. Here is my scenario to check with is it right approach to do it. Since custom dataprovider is not using in populate and any event, Why do I need to set the SetDataProvider in the Open Event. Why Can't I do like below. In Prepopulate event I load all the events manually using CreateEventX method and I call the populate method in the open event of the window. When user create / edit / delete an event I update the information in the database as how we update the database. Tell me, will it work If I follow the above steps. Thanks in advance Karthik

	This will work, but in this case there are no need to use PrePopulate event. It is useful when you'd like to correct some Events data, but do not want to modify a data storage. Your scenario will work with the default Memory data provider, filled with items on form load; and update your database on handling create / edit / delete events... -- WBR, Serge
