Starting with calendar control

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

   We have an application that uses DBI Calendar controls at the moment.
I'm checking the possible usage of calendarpro in our application.
At the moment we can add appointments to the e.g. DayView control and
specify the text of each entry and also give it a unique ID. We can also set the color and some user defined icons for the calendar entry. 
1. Is this also possible with CalendarPro ?
2. Can I set a user defined color to appointments ?
3. What kind of icons can i set ?

The data of the appointments comes from a database and is partially calculated (prepared) in memory. This concept should stay the same, wven if we use CalendarPro.
4. Should we use the customdataprovider ?

	1. Yes. 2. Yes. 3. Any which you can load with regular API. 4. Not necessary. It actually depends whether your data is calculated on the fly or simply once (when open Calendar window for example). In the second case there are no need to use Custom Data Provider. And even in the first case you still can use some special notifications to adjust your values.
