been added to accomplish this task and there is even a sample application provided for
this purpose.
As stated, this component may be used to create applications that have significant,
differing scheduling purposes. The first use is an office application. Some of the
program features follow. It should graphically display clients that are scheduled to come
into the office on any given day. It should be able to list services provided and cost. It
should be able to assign an appointment to a category and to a provider. The developer
should define the categories and providers collections. It should have print functionality
so that the user can crate a hard copy of his schedule. There are other more advanced
features of coarse but these criteria can be used to create a basic office application.
This is probably the most used scenario for application development using the
GbSchedule product.
There are as many uses as developers can conceive. I know of one developer using it
to schedule airplanes at an airport. I think this was a very small airport, as I do hope that
the FAA has its own proprietary program written for this express purpose. One TV
studio has created a schedule of TV programs. It lists all shows and lets them see their
air schedule at a glance. And as if to test its flexibility, some have used the component
to keep their schedule for a year at time. After all it can be scrolled through any length of
time.
