Hi Lynda,

I bought it about 3 years ago and it was a waste of money. It does not plug into existing apps as easily as they say, it does not observe STRICTDATE (due to its age) and the interface is ugly. Other than a few handy little PRGs, it's worthless.
It has made me cautious about buying anything from Hallogram because they didn't make it known just how old the stuff was.

>Does anyone have experience with a third-party product called Visual Calendar, or VC, from Blank Software. It is copyrighted 1994-1997. I've inherited an application that uses this product and my task is to convert the application to a client/server environment. While I understand WHAT VC does, how it works is not particularly intuitive--lots of shuffling of data between various arrays. I'm trying to decide whether to convert this tool to use SQL data or look for something a bit more straight-forward. That might not be easy because most calendars are, by nature, rather complex. The client needs to schedule legal hearings that involve both mediators and rooms. I suppose it's not unlike...say, a medical office.
