Paul, The ICalendar file specification is not particularly complicated (RFC 2445)
And can be seen at: http://www.w3.org/2002/12/cal/rfc2445 There is some good/source work done on Codeproject where you can lift a couple of libraries to access the calendar files directly: http://www.codeproject.com/cs/library/iCalendar1.asp Must admit I've been looking at a particular application which needs read/write access to some form of calendar myself. Dave Crozier -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Newton Sent: 18 May 2007 10:30 To: profox@leafe.com Subject: Querying data with Ical/ICS calendar files Hi all Specifically I would like to be able to query data stored in an ical calendar file (usually has a .ics extension) from VFP(6). Ideally I would like to be able to do this directly (without doing any import/export/convert) but realise that this may not be possible. If intermediate stages are required (import/convert or whatever) I would prefer to do it from VFP. The only think that I can think of at the moment is to do some kind of export from the calendar app (to a CSV perhaps ?) followed by an import into a (prior created) VFP table. This is the option of last resort ! I might at some point also be interested in getting date(s) info from a VFP table into an ical calendar. Ideas or suggestions, anybody ?
