Hi Garry, I made a start on this some years ago. Google calendars can feed an ical. I produced a class that provided me a set of events from an ICAL file. I never completed the work as I had control over the calendar and was able to parse out the event types and recursions I wanted. However, if that was the way that you wanted to go you could get some mileage from my code. The great flexibility of the ICAL format makes it quite difficult to parse out all events, but my ical event class and the ical...

Hi Helmut, this is an interesting question. I have no previous experience using excel events. I had a play and it looks like the problem is that an event named 'SHEETS' is fired,. This in itself is odd, as looking at the M$ documentation I would have expected the event to be called NEWSHEET or WORKBOOK_NEWSHEET. The SHEETS event seems to expect the workbook object to be returned by the event handler. the online dosc for the NEWSHEET event at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/vba/api/excel.workbook.newsheet...

Hi Robert, it looks like you have found a bug in the createRadioButtonStem method of userdialog. The radio button group methods are all written in Rexx and contained in ooDialog.cls so you can look at the code yourself. They attempt to automatically size the group according to the labels you provide and the dialog's font. It looks like the OP intended for the buttons to be vertically spaced 1.5 font heights apart. However, code was put in the createradiobuttonstem method to cope with the special...

You have hit a GOTCHA with ooDialog. You can choose whether or not to make use of autodetection - by default it is on. It's a bit tricky to explain, but all your window dialog controls have ooRexx attributes assigned to them, and if you use the userdialog getdata method, then the attributes will be populated with the value (title usually) of the Windows control. If you use the setdata method, then the windows controls values (title usually) will be populated with the value of the attribute. This...

Following on from what Gil said, try using GUItemplate.Rex (I hope I remembered the name correctly) as a starting point.

One of my stumbling blocks in learning to use OODialog was the fact that there are different "stages" in the creation process and that you need to do things in the correct "stage"...

Hi Garry, this should do what you want - using ooDialog - enjoy Jon ====================================== /* place this in your code where you want to call your dialog */ dlg = .msgdialog~new dlg~executeasync /* send messages to the dialog */ dlg~setMessage('The first message') call syssleep 1 dlg~setMessage('The second message') call syssleep 1 dlg~setMessage('The third message') call syssleep 1 dlg~setMessage('The last message') call syssleep 1 /* clear the dialog */ dlg~cancel dlg~endAsyncExecution...

Hi Karen, I don't know for sure, but I think it is unlikely that the cause of this difference is the change of operating system. It is far more likely that there is some change in the context that you are running the script in that means that the variable AMTREQUESTED does not receive a value where it did in your old context. I suggest that you find where in your code (probably just before line 491) this variable would normally be initialised and try to work back from there. good luck and let us...
