Create a graphical planner

[Fabrizio]

HI,
I need to create a form that shows a planner (with
employees and working days ) where i can use a different
colors for "busy" days and "available" days (i'll read
the data from a Database). Is it an Excel sheet the only
one way to create a Planner?
Any other way?
Thanks,
Fabrizio

Fabrizio,

You can use something other than an excel sheet. However, for something
this specialized, you will probably have to do a bunch of the UI work
yourself, creating custom elements to display the information in the way you
wish.

Hope this helps.

Do you have any suggestion, any site to visit that could
be helpful?

Hi Fabrizio,

Thanks for posting in this group.
For your issue, I think you can use the DataGrid control. It can be easily
bind to the database.
But I think you must do a lot of customize to your datagrid, even need
override the datagrid control.

You can search "datagrid" in www.codeproject.com, there are a lot of
samples in this site. Many of them tell you how to customize the datagrid.

Hope this helps,

If you are planning to use this on an intraner, the Office Web Components
would be another option for you. It provides excel spreadsheet type
functionality with ease of use.
