Out2GCal Beta 1 By Ian Z Ledrick aka "Thisita" A lot of work on this, and I can no longer test it myself because [at least I think] Google blocked my calendar account from non-internal access [i.e: I tested it too much in development and they locked me out, which is either a sign that they think I'm a spammer, or they don't want a Outlook2010 sync] Programing Info: - Written for .NET 4.0 in C# using VSTO included with Visual Studio 2010 Professional [A express edition will NOT work if you wish to compile yourself] - Relies on Google API which is copyright to Google What it does: - Deletes EVERY event in the Google Calendar and adds your outlook calendar events from DateTime.Now until DateTime.Now.AddDays(60) - This includes recurring appointments [that is what held me up]. NOTE: Because the google api doesn't really support [I know it is in there, but it DOESN'T work, I know] recurrent events, they are added as individual events. -Persistence of Username/password between settings [I don't really know if that works, but it is supposed to, needless to say, I'm more worried about functionality right now] What it doesn't do YET: -Show Categories -Show Busy/Free/Tentative -Show High Importance -Allow you to set how many days before/after. NOTE: There is a maximum amount of events [If I remember right, 465] which is extremely easy to hit with recurring events, so I will not code in for more than 60/90 days, and full calendar will NOT happen. -Other things that you ask that aren't listed in won't do What it WON'T do: -Full Calendar sync -2-Way sync, though that might become a side project -Make you happier with your busy schedule -Things that I can't do with google api KNOWN BUGS: -Rendering of Progress Controls [in general] - If you know how to fix this, please let me know via note or comment POSSIBLE BUGS: -With odd type of recurring tasks [but not deleted exceptions], such as moved single occurrences -With random M$/Google API stupidity I ran into REQUIREMENTS: -Office 2010 -.NET 4.0 Released under GPL v3. I [the programmer/distributor] assume NO responsibility for any physical damage, data loss, data corruption, or any other things like your cat getting pregnant. General directions: 1) Click the dialog launcher 2) Set the user name [username@gmail.com] and password 3) Click save 4) Click the refresh button 5) Choose a Calendar from the drop down [It doesn't matter which, this makes you confirm that the account exists] 6) Click Upload to sync the data - WILL DELETE ALL GOOGLE EVENTS AND REWRITE WITH OUTLOOK DATA
