I would like to share the database 'events.mdb' with two Xtreme Calendar ActiveX over a network in the same time.

Is there some precautions, to take this database working properly without crashing.

Anybody experiments sharing Xtreme Calendar ActiveX?

Thanks for your advices.

Hi,

You can share the database file, but please note that each Calendar instance has its own events cache. It is updated on user actions inside the Calendar, but you will also have to update the data on others Calendar instance.

You can use corresponding Calendar events (CalendarControl_EventChanged (Added/Deleted)) to catch data changes of a specific Calendar and forward the event somehow to other instances of your application.

The easiest way to refresh Calendar data cache would be Close() a data provider and reopen it again.

Another option would be to write your own custom data provider with the required functionality embedded inside.

Thanks for the reply sserge,

That's what I planned to do. So far, it is working well.

Xtreme Calendar ActiveX seems to be a Great control.
