Calendar Full Integration

Calendar.NET Control was designed to be easily integrated into your application. All aspects of this control are highly customizable either in design time or runtime. It is heavily used in some major applications some of which require different functionality. This page will describe general guideline on how to integrate this control into your application. Calendar.NET can be combined with many other .NET controls like IE Web Controls.

First step in integrating control will be to create or retrieve data you want to display in control. You can create data using Items property in design time. It allows you to visually add elements into calendar. This option might be very handly while evaluating control and it's features but is not widely used in real applications. Usually you want to display some data stored in database or some other source. The process of retrieving data from database is described in DataBinding Sample.

The next logical step will be designing the page where calendar control is to be displayed. You will most likely want to allow end user the ability to switch views, add new events etc. The framework for this will be provided in the following example. It will allow basic functionality most of calendar applications will have.
