Hi,

I am curious about the field for END DATE in the sample event table. How does it relate to the end date for repeats. If I know that each date is one day can I get rid of this? I am having the trouble that I am using the calender to set up a lot of flights that are only a few hours, but may be from 11pm to 1am on the next day. How do I deal with this and the repeating nature of the flights.

The end date is used for multi-day events. If an event just spans midnight you don't need to enter an end date since the calendar knows that if an event's end time is earlier than its start time it has spanned midnight. But you don't want to delete the field from the database (maybe delete it from your layout) as we use it in the timestamp calcs the calendar depends upon.

Does that help?

Yes it does. Also I have a need for events to start after midnight (for clubs) but be part of the previous day. Any idea on this.

If events start after midnight you can see them on the daily, week, and schedule view if you either scroll up into then morning, or down so you can see past midnight into the morning of the next day.
