Hi,

Just wondering if anyone out there has created a contol that mimics the
look of the Outlook weekly or monthly view (preferrably both)? We will
have to do this for a .NET CF app shortly and it would save quite a bit
of time if we don't have to build custom controls.

Failing that any ideas as to how to approach this would be welcome.
Peter Foot has already kindly pointed me towards this article on
creating a monthview calendar control

http://smartdevices.microsoftdev.com/Learn/Articles/624.aspx

and creating owner drawn controls.

Any other input would be most welcome.

Thanks.
 
Any other input would be most welcome.

What other input you're looking for?

You've got all the pieces from the links provided by
Peter. All what's left for you is to write the code.

Otherwise if you don't mind paying for developing this
control, you can contact me directly over email (just
remove 'online.' from my email address).

Thanks Alex.

I was just wondering if anyone else had done this already or had any
other tips on how to go about it.

I frankly would be most happy to sit here all day coding away to my
hearts content but the constraints of management, the real world and all
the usual problems come into play. As it is I am already working on
several other areas as well as this so I can't get stuck into it myself
the way I'd like to. I'm posting most questions here on behalf of
others in the company who wouldn't even think to look on the newsgroups.

I will pass on your offer to develop the code to the management here and
let them make their own minds up if they want to pay you to do it or let
the developers they employ here spend the time required to build it
ourselves.

Many thanks for your help.
