Hi Kurtis, You pretty well have it, I can fix the row and column titles but I also want to be able to scroll left and right a specific number of columns each time so that date information is guaranteed to line up under the day title.
Unlike most calendar implementation I need to be able to see the week right across the week and I need to be able to double book some time slots and vary them if necessary. I need to carry some other information too but I think I can do this using a hyperlink or pull down ComboBox to minimize on screen real estate. It is the pane or block of data I wish to be able to shift a fixed and specified number of columns and it must be reliable. Thanks for that title info, I knew about it but also forgot about it.
