WHEW!  I'm sure pleased to hear that you won't be chained to your keyboard
inputting mountains of Calendar information!

That Mr. Finch is so on top of things it's almost scary! (Pssst) <whispering>
Hey Janet... do ya think he's psychic or something? <smile>

WAY TO GO, Jerry 'n Janet..

"typing?"
what a strange old-fashioned word...

the technique i have been using to "input" calendar events
is "keyboarding"

and the technique i have been using to create the updates
is "copying and pasting" direct from the calendar web pages

i will make you eat your words, ms mallut!
now that i have had a little hands-on experience
i can "input" one event in a minute or two, maximum

>since this IS a valuable and long over due service for us,

i agree
the idea did not occur to me, however
the concept kudos have to go to that web-ring-master, jerry finch

in addition, jerry researched the calendar programs on the web
before selecting the one we are using

hardly necessary;
the program we are using is very flexible
and has been designed as a calendar from the ground up
