Calender control that allows text to be entered on days driven by DB

[northernbeaver]

I have an appointment table that lists; StartDate, EndDate, Title, and AppointmentType I would like to find/create a calendar control that will display like a calendar control like the Calendar Control 10.0 but will pull from the table and input the appointment title on the day of the calendar that coresponds to the startdate of the appointments.

for example if I had an appointment on march 17th with the tile "Dr. Appointment" On the Calendar control on the 17th it would read "Dr. Appointment"

I've seen similar questions asked and the usual answer that is given is on the selection of the date in the calendar the even shows up in a text box or list box but this is not what I am looking for. I require a visual representation of the appointments ON the calendar control itself.

Does anyone have suggestions? on how to make such a creature? or is there one already in exsistance?

You can check out this thread:

I've seen some pretty nice ones out on the web but not for free.

Try doing a search on Calendar you will find there is one or two free calendars or info how to download one.

Hope this helps

I created a calendar based on gol4's faq(thankyou) and put a listbox under each textbox. The listbox recordsouce is a sql string which pulls the companyname by date from my appointments table. I set an on click event on the listbox to open a form to show all details regarding the appointments by companyname.
