To you all, I have just posted an update of the VFPOrganizer (Notice the change from OrganiSer to OrganiZer by public request! at: http://www.Replacement-Software.co.uk/VFPOrg/VFPOrganizer.zip Notice that the download filename has been changed from the first release I posted. Needless to say, delete any previous version. This is a proper release with sample data as well as lots of fixes which makes it (I think) a usable piece of software. There is the start of a set of documentation in the "README FIRST.DOC" file which explains how to link the Organizer into an external data source as well as detailing the information needed to feed into and out of the Organizer methods. Also it is fully Multi-User compatible. I think you will find this release useful as I have fixed as many of the bugs as I can, some of which are detailed below. As usual I'd appreciate your comments and feedback so far on the project. The next phases are: 1. Allow Categorisation of the events (the display is there at present but not active) 2. Allow Repeat Events to be added. 3. Add in an Alarms section to display when an event becomes due 4. Allow multiple callendars to be selected/displayed. 5. Add in an example MySQL data link with demonstration scripts 6. Add in a Contacts database section 7 Add in a Contact Notes Section 8. Add in an Email section 9. Add in a "Link" section to link all the Events/Contacts and Notes together Please notice that I have added in the toolbar which is dockable even though the buttons are at present inactive. These will be activated hopefully in the next release. As you can see, I have a lot of work to do so I'll not keep you any longer and let you (hopefully) look at the product so far.
Don't forget to read the "README FIRST.DOC" first. Have Fun! 29/06/2006 ------------- 1. Added in tooltips for event descriptions as the mouse is moved down the Time column for each day 2. Add in properties on the Organizer to enable/disable the buttons in the "Edit Event" form. This allows for Example, "Event Deletion" to be disabled. 3. Stop dragging of Empty Clipboard onto a day which threw an error, this is now fixed 4. Redesign the Organizer to use 800x600 forms as a default - Users of larger screens can simply maximise the Organizer form 5. Addition of the "Organizer Toolbar" as an addition. The buttons on the toolbar are as yet un-programmed 6. General cleaning up of the coding in the "day_events" class to remove references such as This.Parent.Parent.Parent...Now if this reference is required, an object say oOrganizer (eg. oOrganizer=This.Parent.Parent.Parent) is generated which makes readability easier 7. Add in Event colouring to the status button which reflects "Pencilled In" and "Confidential" event statuses. This will become parameter driven eventually but at present Pencilled-In -> Amber, and Confidential->Red. In the Higherarchy Confidential Overrides Pencilled-In 8. Ability to add in a "Fixed Event" description which is unchangeable by the user. This can be constructed from any fields in the host event table and is called "Static_Info" but is NON Changeable by the diary user. There is still of course a description field called "Description" which can be amended and written back to the host file. Tooltips are made up from the concatenation of the "Static Info" and "Description" fields in the event object 9. Add in 2 or 7 day week display on the bottom of the Organizer 10. When inserting an event the date/time is taken from the blank event which is double clicked. This used to default to time 00:00 11. Add the Organizer Property "lEvents_Edit_Insert_Enabled" which allows/disables insertion of Events 12. "Today" is highlighted in green - this was working but never changed back to grey! 13. Add in the Organizer Property "lEvents_Move_Enabled property to stop users changing the date/time of an event or moving it with drag/drop 14,. Add in the Generate_Organizer_Demo_Data.prg - this generates demo data which is re dated so that when you go into the Organizer you can see data i.e it makes the events current! 15 Add the Organizer_toolbar - this is currently not active, but will be updated as the project progresses. 16. Fix major problem in calendar which didn't take you to the correct date 17.
