In need of a DX Object

Monday, November 8, 2004 by MSethWeisberg | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Ok this is what I need. A notepad object that is pretty big say 500x500 that will display 7 days worth of appointments from my outlook calander.

It needs to be done in desktopx and properly coded, no half harded shit.

I am willing to pay up to $20 for this if done properly.

What I am look for:

1. Needs to be transparent so it looks good on any background....preferably something aeroish (I like the look of this)
2. Needs to be able to show 1 week worth of appointments
3. Needs to update itself with outlook 1-2 times per day

Example format:

9:00am-10:00am meeting with hockey team owners

**I need this because my life has become very busy lately and I have become very dependent on my computer for my appointment, but want something that is on my desktop**

$20 will buy you 20 minutes of my time You might want to consider putting up a little more than that, I dunno how motivated anyone is going to be about $20.

Someone make me an offer and I am sure we can come to an agreement for it. I have no problem with more than $20 if it is quality work

Does this mean _Martin_ and/or kongit will get $20? Nah... don't think so, but a simple "Thank you!" would be nice too...

well...actually no one gets it yet. Kongit pointed me in the right direction (thanks by the way...couldn't seem to find that one) but it doesn't seem to want to play nice with dx 2.3 and outlook 2k3.

So my search goes on and so does my offer.

I think your offer of $20 is derisory, considering the work involved in something like this. If you had said, "How much would an object like this cost me?", I'm sure someone would have stepped up to do it for nothing. But now?.......hmmmmm I'm not sure.

Why? I am offering someone compensation for doing me some work. I think it's pretty straight forward... I hire someone to create a project for me for a certain amount of money (an amount I set or an amount I agree to) and the person does the project and gets paid.

I woudlnt go so far as to say that $20 is 'derisory'...
If someone is willing to do the work for what he offers, then that's all that matters.
If not, then it's his problem.

As a side note, If I knew how to code it, Id do it.
