Customizable Calender?

A

Hello,
I am interested if anyone knows of an application that will let me customize a calender....sounds a bit strange I know but let me explain.

I am running a Bed and Breakfast part time this summer, and I want an app that will show me a calender, but instead of adding "events" by time I want to add reservation information for the rooms.

Really just a matter of taking an existing program and relabeling/changing a few fields.

Anyone know of any app/software/opensource platform for andriod that could possibly be capable of this?

Many Thanks!

:D
 
I think I know just the app for the work, it has a few more features if your are interested. Here is didthis a social organization app that I think it's most relevant for your request.
 
Thanks! Yes that does look pretty good. and SO close to what I was envisioning. But still its not perfect. Once i create an "reservation" it isn't geared to letting me go back to view it, etc. Plus its made as a social media interaction type thing, definitely don't want to have that with people secure info.
Thank you though.

Still looking for other ideas. Anyone?

Thanks!
 
I would start with an open source calendar. AnCal and google's own calendar are both candidates.

Sweet! Yea I was able to check out AnCal and am sifting through the code, on Google Code. Though Im a little confused on how to download all the source code, it seems I can only really view it online. There must be an easier way.

Ideas?


Thanks a ton!
 
Assuming that you're working on a Windows PC, install (the free) Cygwin from cygwin.com. This will include the svn command line utility. Then start a Cygwin shell, "cd" to the directory where you want to unpack the code, and type the command

svn checkout http://ancal.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ ancal-read-only

as shown at

Source Checkout - ancal - AnCal is Calendar application for Google Android system. - Google Project Hosting




If you're running a Mac (or Linux system) just start a Terminal window and type the same "svn" command. I just tested this on my home Mac and it works like a charm.

HTH ...
