Or you could just draw lines and/or rectangles and map the mouse clicks, thus using the minimum of resources. It worked fine for me. :wink:

Could you please be specific about what more functionality you would like? It's much easier to help if one knows the goal.

Other gadget types would work as well...it just depends on your needs. ;)

Thanks for the replies

Netmaestro what i meant about functionality of the calender was to be able to change font colour and/or background of individual days / range of days. forming a group, and returning the day &/or dates.

Thanks rsts :)

I'm in the midst of rewriting the entire project as it was started so long ago (February 2005).

It Looks VERY slick Sparkie. I really like the way you laid it out and
how you can enter date notes on it, etc.
Any possibility of sharing even the old code?
I know you said you are re-writing it, but I really like what I see right now :!: :) :) :)

Thanks yrreti :)

Sorry, I will not be releasing the code (old or new) to the public at this time. This is just a part of a much bigger project I am attempting to tackle. With my time limitations, it may take me the better part of a year to finish it, but IF and when that time comes, you'll be able to see the code. ;)
