Hi Tracy,

I used the Calendar controls in my Medical Office software for scheduling. They worked pretty well but it took a couple of version upgrades to get it mostly right. There were issues with VFP Menus over the control and the control still being live. I eventually got a work around after a couple of years. One thing that was confusing was that their Calendar control did not operate exactly the same as Outlooks calendar. You could not move an appointment by dragging on the vertical bar on the left edge of an appointment. And instead of resizing on the top bar it moved the appointment. But for the most part it worked well.

I have not played with the latest versions of the tools yet though so this may have been improved.


It looks like a framework for our existing application is out of the question, but incorporating separate components into it is not. We are looking at dbi-tech's component toolbox and wondering if anyone has any experience using them and incorporating them into their apps. Is it tricky? Worth the cost? Is it any quicker developing using their tools than in vanilla vfp? Here is the link:

Does anyone know of any comparable products out there we have not considered?

TIA,
Tracy
