Frank, Thanks a lot fo ryour kind reply. I have a workaround for this and i have now implemented that. The only reason why i wrote this is that i want the Google Calendar API to be just next to perfection. Thanx again.

There is a bug assigned against them, but you can easily argue that to be a feature request, as for a key, 47 chars is not really a small measure. Yes, it's arbitrary, and yes, it's not universal, and no, i have no clue why that number exist :) I am not working in the calendar team, and i can't judge their decision tree, but, if I would be in your shoes, i would probably at least evaluate an alternative key generation scheme/mapping. Even if they fix this, i would guess that this is not very high in the priority list, so you might wait a while until this get's addressed. But.. if you tell us more about the issue, we might be able to come up with a good enough workaround for you?
