making appointments in Windows and OS X

General
1

Hi there!
I was trying to search for a thread for this as well as on Xojo help - but to no avail.

So this could be a thread where users collaborate on this so we can come here to find the solutions.

What I’d like to know is how to

  1. Create appointments to both windows and apple. I would like the ability to send my appointment data to the OS calender options, so the OS will let me know of the appointment. I will use 2014r1 for this.

I, myself , am creating a music lesson app and I would like my appointment table synch with my OS so I could theoretically have notifications with information on my smart phone that is synched with my OS.

I don’t know how to do that in Xojo itself but I have some AppleScripts that work with iCal. They can be built into a Xojo app. With these scripts you can:
Add New Event to Calendar
Create New Calendar
Edit Event
Get List of Calendars

Of course, these scripts only work for Macs but if you would like these scripts let me know.

I have retrieved data from Outlook Calendars to merge with my own. Great help from the OLE gurus here. Let me know if you’d like the code I used. It’s been a while. Your conversation subject may not be attracting the right folks. Try asking for Outlook and iCal interfacing.
