Scheduler Question
One of my template competitors has a pretty nice scheduling template:
http://www.accesstogo.org.uk/Appointments_Planner.html It's a few bucks (not free) Peter Hibbs has some nice flex grid samples which I see you found. This guy has a scheduling template: http://www.access-template.com/ Again a few bucks I have an ongoing project to build an appointment scheduling program but I want to do it better than most of the Access samples you can find. Try utteraccess search for lots of regular calendar samples. If you want to just buy a program: http://www.abs-usa.com/ The sample given away with the calendar control I was using is not too bad (but be warned the more you try to do with it the more difficult it becomes, at least a magnitude of 10 over traditional access calendars or even flex grid work). http://www.codejocksoftware.com/prod.../?platform=com In my opinion using one of the nice calendar controls makes the application much much nicer, but not a route for the unexperienced to go down. .net development is probably a better way to go if using one of these controls. www.abs-usa.com would be my first suggestion. Appointment scheduling is an area that is pretty well covered by software products. Most are just a few hundred bucks. Buy vs. build perhaps points to buy? HTH, Mark Andrews RPT Software http://www.rptsoftware.com http://www.donationmanagementsoftware.com PS: Send me an email or call if you need any extra help. I looked at a lot of appointment scheduling options last year when I started writing my appointment software (It's not done at this point in time). "Jaybird5013" wrote in message ... I'm looking for information on how I might create a sort of scheduling matrix. What I would like is a Form/Subform that matches a column of CLIENTS with a row of CAREGIVERS and the day and time of the appointments. Ideally, this would resemble a weekly calendar, where only the appointments for the current (or selected) week would appear. I'm thinking I need three tables... Clients, Caregivers, and Appointments. I've looked at Peter Hibbs' Time Sheet Display, using the Flex Grid control (http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/f...67 9b5z316d54 ) and I'm very interested but have no idea how to use it. Seems to me that this is a Form design issue and maybe a code issue to make it work, but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around it. Any pointers that will help clear the mud would be appreciated, and references to resources that will do the same will be gratefully accepted. |

Scheduler Question
Jaybird,
If you still want to use the flex grid control I would suggest you use the Cross Tab example. Although the code is relatively simple it would need some thought on how to program the VBA code so unless you are very comfortable with that, it could be a tricky project. Perhaps if you study the code in the examples you can figure out what you would need to do. I don't know of any Flex Grid tutorials apart from what Microsoft publish although as this control is mainly used by VB6 users you may find something on Web sites for VB. The documentation I supplied does give a list of all the properties, events, etc for the control (which I guess you have already seen). Peter Hibbs.

I guess what I need is more information for how to do what you did. Sincerely, Jaybird |

Scheduler Question - still Pimping

... So after getting absolutely no help from vizio john and arno r, are you interested in my calendar form/calendar report? Steve Stevie, you are a hopeless case. Whose calendar solution are you trying to flog? Stevie is our own personal pet troll who is the only one who does not understand the concept of FREE peer to peer support! He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices. These newsgroups are provided by Microsoft for FREE peer to peer support. There are many highly qualified individuals who gladly help for free. Stevie is not one of them, but he is the only one who just does not get the idea of "FREE" support. He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices. If he was any good, the "thousands" of people he claims to have helped would be flooding him with work, but there appears to be a continuous drought and he needs to constantly grovel for work. Please do not feed the trolls. John... Visio MVP |

An Open Letter Regarding visio john .........
"Steve" wrote in message
... visio john is the one who does not understand the concept of FREE peer to peer support! He never offers any help to posters in the Access newsgroups. Wrong as usual. I do not post as many answers as I would like to because I have to keep warning posters when you are in troll mode, but I have posted answers to the Access newgroups. Including this week. If visio john was truly an MVP, he would be offering help to posters rather than repetitiously posting repugnant messages and wasting the time of all who open his repugnant messages. I guess in your eyes, helping posters avoid wasting time and money with a troll is not being helpful. Steve Anyway, I have wasted enough time on your banality, so I am moving on till the next time you try to peddle your unwelcome tripe. John... Visio MVP |
