Paul, Well it is in C# so no problem. If you want I can have a look at it with a view of wrapping it up.

It seems that Douglas Day's DDay.iCal library *would* be just what I am looking for if only I could use it in/with VFP. I have no idea how I might go about this, or even if it would be possible (which I somehow doubt). What a pity. Perhaps Craig could knock something up <g> - iCal for Sedna anybody ?
