WebCalendarCreator Conversion
Information
If you're a user of Grafix Network WebCalendarCreator
we've got great news. We have a conversion utility that
will import all of your existing events into Web Calendar
Plus format (including repeating events).
The best news is that we will convert your
WebCalendarCreator 2002 data even if you haven't already
purchased a copy of Web Calendar Plus. If you're using the
trial version we will convert the data for you so you can see
the benefits of Web Calendar Plus.
The following fields will be imported:
- Full Event Name
- Short Cal View Name
- Event URL
- Event Description
- Event Date
- Location
- Start and End Times
- Time zone
- Event Graphic
The layout of the calendar is not imported.
Neither are the fields for Name Color and Text Colors as these
don't have a one to one correspondence with Web Calendar Plus.
However, Web Calendar Plus is capable of coloring the
foreground and background of a category of
events on the main 1-month calendar. For an example of
foreground/background coloring see the sample calendar related
to categories by
clicking here
Also since Web Calendar Plus meters events
individually you cannot have perpetual events on the calendar.
Therefore during the import process an event that repeats
perpetually will be converted to an event that repeats 20
times. If you're using the Basic version of Web Calendar Plus
which is limited to 400 events it may be possible to exceed
this limit due to repeating events. We will convert all of your
events even if it exceeds the 400 event limit but you'll not be
able to add new events. You'll have to either upgrade to the
Advanced version or selectively delete your existing events to
bring the total down to the license limit..
We will need you to email an attached copy of
your webcal.gcl file which contains all of your data. Your
webcal.gcl file is probably located in the c:\grafix\webcal
folder. Click on the link below to start this process. Note
that any existing data in Web Calendar Plus will be overwritten
in the conversion process. We will convert your data once for
free. After that standard support charges
apply.
