Building A Calendar

Can anyone provide me an example of a table of dates, that would reside on the computer and then be checked by an a script to check if the date has an appointment or event. I would like to set it up so my robot checks the table daily for events and reminds me. Any thoughts or examples

If you wanted to check a table for special dates, you would have 4 columns.
Date User Description Apointment or reminder

You would have to write something in C# or some other language to query the database and Eexcite it from a script passing in the necessary information to perform the query. You could default to today's date in the query, but would probably pass a user name and appointment or reminder. If you wanted to include time, it would be more useful. You would be able to be reminded at a certain time to do something instead of all things for that day. If you added time, you would probably want a flag also to tell the robot that it has already told you about a specific event.

Ok, thanks. I think I know what to do now. If I run into problems, will open a new request.
