Overview

Calendar functionality is a common part of almost every business application built for mobile devices. Although some of them use Pocket Outlook data store for this purpose others require calendar related data to be stored in a local database as the main data store of the mobile business application.

Resco MobileCalendar (SQLCE) is a C# .NET sample project demonstrating how to develop a Calendar-like mobile application which uses SQLCE local database as a data storage. The application has the same UI as the Pocket Outlook Calendar, so users don’t need a special training to use it. Since MobileCalendar (SQLCE) is provided with source code, it is possible to do also significant customizations and integrate it to an existing application.

Familiar User Interface

The application’s main form shows appointments in various views such as Agenda, Day, Week, Month and Year the same way as the Pocket Outlook Calendar application does. The Agenda view is implemented using Resco AdvancedList .NET control, Day and Week views are implemented using Resco OutlookWeekCalendar control and Month and Year views are implemented using Resco OutlookMonthCalendar.

Another form provides an UI for data editing. It uses Resco DetailView .NET control allowing the user to edit appointment data in TextBox, ComboBox and Link items while providing standardized Windows Mobile user interface.

Thanks to advanced controls designed specifically for mobile devices, the application runs seamlessly in portrait as well as in landscape mode, while this functionality is implemented in just two lines of code.
