Well, in the case of this Calendar you see, I didn't use the AllProperties field, but I do use it on another Schedule control, the GanttView. And yes, it is a pain, but doable. For the GanttView, instead of binding directly to the BBS, I use plain DataTables and then populate them from BOs and update the data back to BOs on Save. When you get it going come back here if you face any problem and we can try to go through them together.

Appointment Schedule solution?

Hi All,

I have the need in one of my project to create Route Schedule for drivers. I don't need anything fancy, just a calendar control where I can show/set the schedule per driver, etc.

Can anybody recomend an easy to use control for this which can integrate with SF BOs?

Thanks.

Ivan,

Nice to know you've got it working. I already have Infragistics licenses so I'll give it a try. There was another old post about a problem binding the Infragistics AllProperties (SQL variable binay) field using BBS. Did you have any problems with that?

Hi Larry.

I am sure Edhy will give you his impressions too, but here are some screen shots of the IG controls in action. So far, they have behaved well. They are bound to SF BusinessBindingSources.

Hi Larry,
Well, I end up using DevExpress controls, I found it easier to work than Infragistics.

Edhy,

Did the Infragistics WinSchedule control work for you? I have a need to do simple appointments and was considering giving it a try.

Sounds good :)

Thanks Trent, since I have Infragistics, I will try this.

We actually wrote our own for our Appointment Scheduling application because it was very complex and nothing out there would work...however, in the process, we did try the DevExpress and Infragistics calendar controls and both worked well. They both work well and will get the job done. I think that Infragistics might be a little ahead on features and flexibility, but if your solution is not complex then either will work just fine.
