Hi, I usually write something like, "Meeting with X on 2 August at 2:00pm" (also could be written at "14:00," I suppose. Thank you for the end time suggestions; iCal, however, defaults to an hour long appointment if you do not specify otherwise. This is the same in Google Calendar.
Hope this helps, Harry On Jul 31, 2012, at 5:35 AM, William Windels <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Lisette, > > Thx for the hints. > I have played with your suggestion since I would like also a end-hour for my > appointment. > > What works best until now: > dinner with x on vrijdag 3 August at 20:30-23:15 > The only thing that isn't very dutch is the on and the at. > > I also think that this system isn't 100% stable.
