Hi Everybody,
Has someone an idea of how you can place a contact as a meeting in a calendar with PHPrunner?
Also I'd lke to attach Emails from outlook to these contacts
Awesome program!

Hi Dion,

Not sure how you could do this with standard PHPrunner,poweful though it is. I've used phpicalendar to maybe provide part of what you want....
In our case we have people who use a phprunner created system to set appointments for our consultants into a mysql database. Then the consultants, via some vba code in Outlook, access this database to get the contact with whom the appointment is made and the date/time/etc of the appointment. These are stored in Outlook contact and appointment items. Finally the vba code creates and uploads an ical file to the server that the phpicalendar pages use to display the consultants' schedules to those making further appointments.
If something like this helps let me know. I've used code freely available on the net for this with a bit of tweaking to suit our situation.

Lets just forget the outlook interface for the moment, I have bought the calendar template for PHPrunner, then again;

  1. How can I insert an existing contact from the Table `contacts`
  2. How can I insert a new contact starting from the monthy, weekly or daily view of the calendar template
  3. How can I attach the user to that particular appointment?
  4. If I click on an appointment, I want to see the contact details, How can I do this as a newbie to PHP??
    Please Sergey, Jane or Alexey any thoughts??

    Or someone else?
    Thks,

    Dion
