ICS Generation

[Bob Sneidar]

Ditto. I would LOVE to be able to not only WRITE events but READ them too. On a Mac I could probably AppleScript it (given a LOT of time doing almost exclusively research and trial and error) but on Windows I think it becomes a lot more difficult/impossible without a real C compiled API. Microsoft does not have a method for communicating with their apps like they did long ago. Anyone who uses ACT can testify to that. There was a time when to use the ACT Outlook plugin the user had to be an administrator.

Has anyone got a calendar library for LiveCode? I'm developing an app, part of which exports a handful of events to do with ordering regular medication. I'd like to export an ICS format file containing 3 all-day events titled something like the following:

1. MEDS RUN-OUT TODAY
2. COLLECT MEDS
3. ORDER NEXT MEDS

What I'm looking for is either a full calendar library that I can use to generate such a ICS file, or the minimalist version, ie just enough calendar support to generate this minimal ICS file - nothing more complex.

Anyone know of anything suitable?

Thanks
