Hello codejock,

when will you release the calendar controls. I hate it to ask you this again and again. Since December 2004 you promised to release the Outlook calendar. First it was scheduled for January, then for February, for March, End of March and now it's April (not only in Germany, I think the USA uses the same calendar???) Meanwhile my customers are very (!) angry because I made promises which I can't keep again. Today I had another call from one my customers asking for the promised calendar functionality in my application.

The only reason to buy your controls whas the ability of the calendar controls. I am very disappointed.

I NEED A DATE!!!!!

your disappointed customer

Same problem.....

just indicative date... (coarse grain)...

The one and only problem with Codejock is the horrible service quality. They don't care. I mean I pay for the service with my subscription mode. It's one week ago since I posted this message into their forum and I still didn't get an answer. It can't be so difficult to write one single line. When I look around in this forum I regocnize that many other users have the same problem as I have. The controls are worthless with a bad support.

The problem is now that we used the controls in our application. I don't know any other vendor which delivers good calendar controls for ActiveX. Sure, we bought Infragistics (very good support!) for our .net application but whe still have to support our com-edition.

If anybody who reads this message knows an alternative supplier for ActiveX-calendar controls, please let me know.

Yesterday I received a horrible answer about my question for the release date for version 10 which was originally adressed for the end of March !!!

Hello,

We do not have an exact date as yet, but it should be by the end of June. We will be releasing a beta version which is actually release candidate 1 hopefully by the end of April.

Kind regards,
Kirk Stowell

These news totally breaks all my release plans ! I don´t know how a delay of three month can happen ! I now also have to look for alternative solutions !!! So if anybody knows one please let us know.

I agree with Zonga00 the release management of CodeJock is more than worse ! Why can´t anybody post a message if the release dates can´t be kept ?

Hi Tobi,

I am really shocked. The end of June is a joke, isn't it? That makes the control suite worthless. I will write an email to Codejock that I want my money back. I bought a subsription mode under the condition that the calendar functionality would be available in the first weeks of January 2005!

Tobi: If you find an alternative I would be glad if you write an email to my mail address. It's mailto:mscholz@msconsulting.de - mscholz@msconsulting.de . We are located in Germany (Krefeld/Rhineland).

Thanks Kirk, this status update is much appreciated. I was also disappointed with the delay, because there are new features in current controls that I am eagearly waiting for (such as drag&drop in reportcontrol).

I personally think it will be very helpful to get familiar with the new control in BETA form. I will send an email to support as suggested. Thanks again.

Kirk

I appreciate your honesty about an end of June date, for really, why on earth did you ever suggest it would be available in January? I too have 'marketing' breathing down my neck about including the calendar control in our application - but only since I told them they would be able to have it in February or March. Six months! What happened?
