Appointment viewer (With email dir monitor)
Posted: Mon Dec 26, 2005 1:33 am
This program is a very simple, brain dead but useful (to me) appointment displayer. And as I get around to it, it will get more features; including the printing; which I haven't got around to yet! It was tailored specifically to my needs so don't complain if it doesn't do what you want, use the code in it to do your own thing.
Note 1. This program is primarily designed to monitor a directory on disk for incoming files from my email program which contain appointment details from my family and friends. The files are read, their contents displayed, the incoming file time and date details are also stored in the database and the filenames are linked to the database. They get deleted when an appointment is deleted from the list.
Of course, you can ignore/strip that code and use it to just list/maintain appointments.
Note 2. Check the paths for images and libs in the datasections etc, they are tailored for me.
Note 3. Find your own icons and images, I am not going to do your work for you. I already did the hard stuff!!.
Features.
. Store all date in a robust SQLite 3.x database
. Appointments linked to physical incoming file on disk
. Shows current time, date, category and note for appointments.
. Icons in each collumn for each item.
. Colourful balloon tool tips for each item.
. Can edit details of each appointment 'in place' instead of popping up a window.
. Details instantly updated in database when cell contents are changed.
. Checks pending, due and missed dates on startup and record add.
. Can add your own blank appointment and then fill in the details.
. Minimise to tray with tooltip
. Change the directory to monitor and store it in an INI file for next time
. No GOSUBSs because Xombie hates them (evil grin).
Lots of good people and lots of good code contributes to make all this work. I have commented where I knew what came from whom. Thanks those people!!!
The link will always be the one below, unless something happens.

*Edit* Been fixing bugs, optimising code etc. Will upload this soon. Does anyone want me to keep improving this?
Could a moderator please delete my empty, redundant posts? We need our own delete function for our own posts.
