I have a calendar of events I need to maintain and I'm trying to build a
form to allow the client to select multiple dates of when the event is
taking place and insert those records into a table.
I'd like to allow them to enter as many start and end dates as they would
like.
For example:
They could list an event taking place on the first day of every month
1/1/2002 - 1/9/2002
2/1/2002 - 2/4/2002
3/1/2002 - 3/3/2002
What would be the best way to handle this?
I was thinking of programmatically adding a list of text boxes to the page
at load time and then allowing the user to add more boxes if they needed
to add more dates.
How would I loop through the values and populate a table correctly
Has anyone dealt with anything similar or could point me to an online
tutorial?
Thanks
Here is the form I'm thinking of:

See this .net Spiffy Calender Box at
The Spiffy Controls Library
http://www.liebherr-us.com/equis/desktopdefault.aspx?si=eddem007m001
It is really great when implemented!
[This is how I created a RTM version of the DLL which I used in my VS.net
RTM project]
1. Create a new Web Control Library called 'SpiffyControlsLibrary'
2. Rename 'WebCustomControl1.vb' to 'CalendarBox.vb'
3. Paste in the Library Source Code for both AssemblyInfo.vb and
CalendarBox.vb
http://www.liebherr-us.com/equis/desktopdefault.aspx?si=eddem007m002
4. Generate a new, random key pair using:
Strong Name Tool (Sn.exe)
sn -k keyPair.snk
5. In AssemblyInfo.vb, make sure this line points to where your
keypair.snk is.
e.g. <Assembly: AssemblyKeyFileAttribute("C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Visual Studio
Projects\SpiffyControlsLibrary\keypair.snk")>
6. Build this project and SpiffyControlsLibrary.dll will be created under
your bin directory.
