Display Outlook calender?

I currently use the FlowChart.Net.  Though it doesn't do the Visio imports as "cleanly" as I'd hoped, it still has more than paid for itself in other ways!  Good job, guys!  I was wondering how easy it would be to view Outlook calander scheduled events using Planner.NET?  I don't need to send things to Outlook, but I do need to be able to view scheduled events in Outlook's calender.  I have no clue how to do this in any sense so some guidance would appreciated.

Here is a sample project that imports the Outlook calendar via OLE Automation. We will probably implement builtin support for that and for the iCal/vCal format in some of the next versions.

What's wrong with the Visio import ? If that's possible,  please send us a .vdx file that demonstrates the problem and our developer will try to fix/improve the VisioImporter class.

Thanks,
Stoyan

Where do I get the sample project for Planner.NET?  Using OLE automation scares me a little for a commercial app.  I need to see it in action.  I can't guarantee our customers will be using a specific version of Outlook, and in my experience OLE automation was very version dependent.

Built in support for Outlook calender would guarantee I would buy it Grin.

To whom do I send my vdx sample?  I suppose support for basic UML activity shapes would do the trick.  Most of our customers will use Visio UML and basic ERD shapes, not simple basic shapes.

Though don't get me wrong about the control, it has proved invaluable in other ways!

I forgot to paste the link:

https://mindfusion.org/_temp/PlannerWithOutlook.zip

Use the icon on the left to send me an email with the .vdx file, I will forward it to the developer that works on the Visio import/export libraries.

I have emailed the file as requested.

I will review the sample you've provided today.  If I have any questions may I email you directly?
