I need to add/edit/del events to a shared Google cal using visual basic or Access (not using VB.NET) to post events from a custom desktop calendar built in Access and some VB. My goal - users can have an internal office calendar used for years and fully integrated with office functions, while choosing to share some of these events on a Web calendar for scheduling.
I can find others not using VB.NET who want to do the same, but none of their posts have been successful in finding out how.
If I cannot use the google API with VB (not vb.net) can I use vbscript to add/del calendar events? I found some sample code that was successful for adding an event with vbscript, but no successful code in vbscript to del or edit (tho others have tried).
Appreciate any help/suggestions on this. After hours across 2 days searching, this group looks like my final hope.
Thanks,
Mark

I am using a shared Google account and the rest of the people with access to the account have even less programming knowledge than me. I have a custom function that greatly helps us to reduce the time we spend on a repetitive task but we need to do that task on many sheets and more sheets are continuously being added to the Drive.
They are not too comfortable with bringing up the Apps Script editor each time the code needs to be run so I have been trying to add a custom menu to the GSheets UI so the function can be run just by clicking on one button.
Is there a way for me to get this menu to appear on every single GSheet in the Drive?
I have searched high and low for the answer to this question and have been asked to use libraries and to publish the script as an add-on. I read that libraries might slow down the script execution and the editor still needs to be brought up so I tried the add-on method instead.
After spending hours navigating through the confusing maze that is the Google Cloud Platform and Google Marketplace SDK, I found out that to pass OAuth verification, I need to have my own domain and we just don't have the budget for domain hosting.
Any help or solutions offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I'm creating a calendar app that requires me to link and sync with multiple calendars. I've already implemented Google, and Microsoft. However, i'm having a difficult time looking for documentations on how i'll be able to retrieve and save events from an apple calendar through my web application.
Does anyone have any leads? Any help would be much appreciated!
I'm trying to add iCal import support to my existing scheduling application which needs to support Windows XP, Vista, and 7. Writing iCal format is easy, but reading it is another story, mostly trying to convert times to local times with the complex TIMEZONE/TZID/RRULE syntax. Ideally Windows would have a native API for this, but I haven't found one.
I know Outlook 2007+ has an OpenSharedItem function that would work. I don't want to require users to have Outlook installed though, since my application "competes" with Outlook. I thought about writing a web service that would use Outlook on my web server to do this, but I know using Outlook OLE/COM objects from a service has issues, so that probably isn't an option either. I do own about 300 Exchange Server licenses, are there any APIs with Exchange that would maybe work better? I do notice when I email iCal files from GoToMeeting.com they say they were created with "Microsoft CDO for Microsoft Exchange", so I have a feeling they are doing something like this to avoid writing the format themselves.
My application is written in C++ using mostly native Win32 API, but I don't mind creating a .NET DLL for this, or even requiring users to have Internet access so I can post the file to my web server and have it return a converted format my app can use easily. My web server runs on Windows though, so anything Unix-based might be dificult. Other than that, I'm pretty open to options.
Update: I did find CDOEX but as I've never used it before, can anyone tell me where to start and if it can in fact do what I need? I don't really see much about iCal in the docs, and I'd need to install Exchange on my dev PC (not crazy about that) to start playing around with this API.
You can try to use Redemption (I am its author) - it allows to explicitly import iCal files using RDOAppointmentItem.Import(..., olICal).
Is there any way to interact with the Windows Phone 7 calendar?
I have some basic goals of reading from and writing to the calendar and I'm not sure there is a way to do this.
From what I can vcard and ical support are not even there.
The latest(as of August, 2011) release of WP7, codenamed Mango and WP7.1, DOES allows a read only access to calendar and contacts data.
Best way is to listen directly from horse's mouth. Check out the documentation at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh202972%28v=VS.92%29.aspx
The current release of Windows Phone 7 does not allow developers to build applications that interact with the Calendar (see this thread). At this stage, as lukas suggested, you need to roll out your own controls and services to synchronize with Google Calendar, Outlook, etc. You can also look at integrating your application with Live Calendar (see MickN's links in this thread)
HTH, indyfromoz
Im not 100% sure but it is not avaible for now.
Just some free thoughts: Maybe you can interract with a google or outlook calendar in your app via webservices and your user will have the synchronization between the phone calendar and web calendar so maybe this is the way, but I'm just thinking :)
I started wondering today if it would be possible to integrate Joomla+CB with Google apps.
If that would be possible we could have one great product!
The first thing that I would want to integrate is the logon-process, one login for Joomla+Google apps.
Then it would be great to have some Google apps modules:
- your latest e-mails
- your next calendar entries
- your google talk buddies online/offline
- your most recent docs and spreadsheets
This question has too many sides to it.
I'll provide the answer to the logon process. There's an extension called Ulti RPX.
It has some bugs and I've had to make many small changes to get it working well for me, but you can easily understand it and change it to provide your users with the integrated logon that you desire.
