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.

I use ButtonGadgets in this app...

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. ;)
