Hello!
Congratulations for the last version of Calendar pro! I am a Spanish beginner in the use of filemaker pro. I have bought Calendar's last version and I have a problem to which I do not find solution.
I am interested in changing the printing format of the calendar, so that it is in day, week or month, a list appears with other information of the event, some added for me. It would be in the shape of table, not like it happens now with the field “CalendarContentReptCalcâ€

Hello Damián,

I think you'll find the layout Event List more conducive to what you're trying to do. If you go to that layout in the SeedCode Calendar example file and sort the events by date, you'll see we'e already summarizing by date. Add the other fields you need and, if necessary, lengthen the body part of the layout and make the Summary and Description fields taller, setting them to "Slide up" when printing. This way they'll show more information for those lines that need it. In FM11 this "sliding" is at the bottom of the Position tab under "sliding and visibility". In earlier versions it is available in the format menu under Set Sliding and Printing in layout mode.

These changes may make the layout a little ugly in Browse mode so some people duplicate the layout and create a second one just for printing. There they can make the body part as tall as they want since they never see the layout in browse more.

Hello John, thanks for your response.
There would be some way of showing the field "DateDisplayCalc", in order that it appears the day, the week or the month?
Thanks, Damián

Well on your list you can just show the DateStart field and format it the way you'd like using FileMaker's date formatting. And you can certainly change the order of the elements in DateDisplayCalc if you need to, but I'm not sure I understand your question.

Hello, I want to print a list of the events of the day, or of the week or of the month that I have selected from the presentation "Calendar".

Because of it I need that in the header the name of the day appears, or of the week or of the month.

It is something similar to what happens on having printed from the presentation "Calendar no side menu ", but with a format similar to that of the presentation "Events List"

I see: your print script can set the value of DateDisplayCalc (if that is working for you) into a new global field in SampleEvents and then show that global on your printing layout.

To get the found set on Event List to match the events shown in the calendar, have your print script navigate to the Source No 1 layout and call the script "Write FileMaker Source to Variable". Then navigate back to Event List or to your printable version of it and the found set will match that on the calendar.

Enjoy!

Thanks, I will try it.
