Its not that I want to, I need to..The control is a DB Aware day planner
(based on the TMS one, I wrote it before they did theirs, Im revisiting it)

Originally I did the next loop, doing this inside a datalink is not
recommended
(as it refires the datalinks events) wheras setting the activerecord doesn't

The DBChart must do something similar, but has no source
