Jan: Thanks for your input. By looking at your zip file, I can tell that a lot of work went into it. I'm not sure exactly what the benefit of using variable forms and have actually never used one. I always deal with data directly, so I guess all my forms are "bound". I've also never used eeps much, but since they are now able to be placed into the form, I think I will be using them a lot, once I figure out how to do it.
What I'd like to do with the appt. scheduler is when I hover over a date in the little calendar, the grid shows all the appointments for that date and none other. When I click on the calendar date, my cursor should go into the grid for editing, adding, etc. rows. Is that possible without herculean programming effort?
