I. Introduction
A. What Is CALRPT ?
CALRPT is a program that produces a nicely formatted
calendar report (Screen, Printer, or File) from Sidekick+'s
Calendar file without invoking Sidekick+. This is especially
helpful in your AUTOEXEC file to show you what is on your
Calendar for the next few days. To invoke CALRPT just type CALRPT
from the DOS command line or place the command CALRPT somewhere
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
For Help on Parameters and to find out the defaults - type:
C:\>CALRPT /?
Also available to CALRPT users is Resident-TaskManager (See
- Other Programs by WetZoft Applications later in this document).
Resident-TaskManager allows you to integrate your task list with
your calendar to get a comprehensive list of your daily
activities. See the /T option described later in this document.
B. CALRPT's Current Limitations & Restrictions
845 Appointments within selected time span
64K SK+ Record Sizes (Usually caused by a lot of repeating
appointments or HUGE notes.
50 Notes per day
C. !!!Warning!!!
There have been a few isolated reports of corrupted SK+
calendars. This condition is NOT caused by CALRPT (CALRPT IS READ
ONLY!) nor is CALRPT very happy when it runs into a corrupted
Calendar. The sequence of events that occurs is that CALRPT
reports it is reading the appointment file, it may report it is
processing the repeats, and the system hangs. This is NOT (99.9%
of the time) a problem with CALRPT! If you run into this
condition please contact me. I am trying to program around this
condition but need one or more calendars to test with.
D. Files Included on Distribution Disk
The CALRPT Distribution Disk contains the following files:
CALRPT.EXE - The CALRPT program
CALRPT.DOC - This file
CALINST.EXE - An installation program
README - Changes or important information not included in
the printed documentation (CALRPT.DOC).
REGISTER.BAT - A BATch file to print out the registration form
to your printer (LPT1)
REGFORM.DOC - The actual Registration Form
PRINTDOC.BAT - A BATch file to print out this documentation
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 1
file to your printer (LPT1)
VENDOR.DOC - Instructions to Disk Vendors who wish to
distribute CALRPT.
Copy these files onto your disk into whatever directory you
wish. Then, consider how you want to run CALRPT and set your
options (See: Installation Program later in this file).
E. Shareware
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software.
You should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook,
whether it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes
fitting your needs easier, because you can try before you buy.
And because the overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware
has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
CALRPT is distributed as Shareware -- this means WetZoft
Applications encourages users, subject to restrictions described
below, to share copies of this program with friends, associates
and bulletin boards. You may not share the registered version of
CALRPT.
If you make copies of CALRPT, you must include all files in
the original distribution file. You are not permitted to
distribute CALRPT without this documentation.
II. Legal Stuff
A. Acknowledgements
A special thanks to all of those who encouraged me to
continue with this project with words of praise, thanks, and many
new ideas.
Thanks to TurboPower Software for furnishing an excellent
set of utilities (Turbo Professional 5.0) that made this program
possible in 25% of the time it would have taken me otherwise.

2-Digit Numbers). Under DOS 3.x and above CALRPT will search for
the CALENDAR file "/C" in the following places:
Current Directory
Directory where CALRPT resides (It's a good Idea to put CALRPT
in the same directory as your SK+ Calendar
DOS Path
A. Detailed Explanation Of Options
1. /B {Begin Date}
/B {Begin Date} - CALRPT will start its report with the date
specified by the user. The Date format is: MM/DD/YY. Month
and Day must be valid 2 digit date numbers: Month (01-12),
Day (01->Days in Month). The default is today's (system)
date.
2. /C {Calendar}
/C {Calendar} - This parameter is used to tell CALRPT what
Sidekick+ APP file to use. The default is PERSONAL.APP. If
the specified file cannot be found in the Current Directory
CALRPT will search for the file (DOS 3.x and higher) in the
directory where CALRPT resides and the DOS Path. Full Drive
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 5
and Path information is accepted. ** This is an installable
option.
3. /D {Days}
/D {Days} - This parameter is used to tell CALRPT how many days
of calendar data you want to appear on the report. The valid
range is 1 to 365. The default is 7. ** This is an
installable option.
4. /E {End Date}
/E {End Date} - CALRPT will end its report with the date
specified by the user. The Date format is: MM/DD/YY. Month
and Day must be valid 2 digit date numbers: Month (01-12),
Day (01-Day in Month). The default is todays (system) date.
/E overrides the /D option. The default is the Begin
Date(/B) + Days(/D)
5. /F {File Out}
/F {File Out} - Optionally CALRPT can write its report out to a
disk file. The default filename used is PERSONAL.RPT and
will be written in the current directory. No checking is
done to see if the file already exists so BE CAREFUL! If /F
is specified with no other parameters the default Report
File name is used. You can also specify the name of the file
you want to use after the /F.
Examples:
CALRPT /F /D 20 Writes a 20 day report to PERSONAL.RPT
CALRPT /F MYFILE.CAL /D 20 Writes a 20 day report to
MYFILE.CAL
** This is an installable option.
6. /H {Help}
/H {Help} - Tells CALRPT to list a short help screen for the
user.
7. /N {Print Notes}
/N {Print Notes} - CALRPT will optionally display a limited
amount (4096 bytes) of note information that is attached to
a Title or Appointment. There are a few restrictions: 1)
Note lines are limited to 65 characters (you can have longer
lines in SK+ but the printed report will be truncated) 2)
The screen display will only show 15 (more if Max Video /V
specified) note lines. 3) the printed report will show up to
50 note lines. If /N is specified by itself CALRPT will
print out as much of the note as possible. If an optional
number is provided CALRPT will limit the number of note
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 6
lines printed to the number specified (within the limits
described above).
Examples:
CALRPT /N Writes a 7 day report with attached notes.
CALRPT /N 4 Writes a 7 day report with attached notes but
only printing a maximum of 4 lines per note.
8. /P {Print Output}
/P {Print Output} - Tells CALRPT to route its report to the
printer. CALRPT will issue user defined Printer
Setup/Termination Strings and will accept a User Defined
Page Size. ** This is an installable option.
9. /R {Print Reminders Only}
/R {Print Reminders Only} - This option instructs CALRPT to print
only the reminder report. CALRPT has a feature that will
allow you to keep track of certain tasks or other items
using your SK+ calendar. This feature is called REMINDERS.
Just enter a "!" in any (non-repeating) Appointment or Title
record and the Description will appear (if prior to the
report end date) on a report after the end of the normal
CALendar RePorT. The default is to print the full report.
This option suppresses the standard CALendar RePorT
10. /S {Search}
/S {Search} - CALRPT has the ability to search your Calendar for
a user specified string over a 999 day time span. Search is

time you were supposed to visit your mother!
11. /T {Task File}
/T {Task File} - Optionally CALRPT can interface with Resident-
TaskManager to integrate Tasks / ToDo Lists with Calendar
Output. The default filename used is RTM.DAT and will be
read from the current directory. If /T is specified with no
other parameters the default Task File name is used. You can
also specify the name of the file you want to use after the
/T.
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 7
Examples:
CALRPT /T /D 20 Produces a 20 day report with RTM.DAT
CALRPT /T MYTASKS.DAT /D 20 Produces the same report with
MYTASKS.DATA
Please note that if you have a Task Due 21 Days or more from
the starting date of the report CALRPT will not include it

C:\>CALRPT /d 10
List (Printer) all appointments for the next 10 days
C:\>CALRPT /d 10 /p
List (Printer) all appointments for June 1989
C:\>CALRPT /b 06/01/89 /d 30 /p
*** Note the two digit month & day
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 8
List (CRT) appointments for the next 7 days in your Common App
File
C:\>CALRPT /c C:\SKPLUS\COMMON.APP
*** Note: 7 Days is default so does not need to be specified
IV. Error Messages
Listed below are error messages generated by CALRPT and possible
explanations:
*** ERROR! mm/dd/yy Invalid Begin Date Specified
This message is generated when an invalid Begin Date /B is
specified. This could be the result of invalid month or day
values or the month or day value was specified with a single
digit.
*** ERROR! mm/dd/yy Invalid End Date Specified
This message is generated when an invalid End Date /E is
specified. This could be the result of invalid month or day
values or the month or day value was specified with a single
digit.
*** Warning: End Date < Begin Date --- Begin/End Date Forced
Equal
This message is generate when the End Date is chronologically
prior to the Begin Date.
*** Warning: Appointment Limit Exceeded. nnn Appointment Records
Skipped!
CALRPT has a limit (specified earlier) on the number of
Appointments it can store. If this limit is exceeded all
remaining appointment records are skipped. This usually
results in a loss of repeating appointment records. Due to the
nature of the SK+ calendar early repeating appointments may be
lost while later "standard" appointments will be shown.
*** Warning: Max Exceptions Exceeded
Repeating appointments can be excluded(deleted) on specified
days using SK+. This is flagged in the calendar file as an
exception to the repeat. CALRPT can track up to 30 exceptions
per repeating appointment.
*** Warning: Insufficient Memory to Process Notes
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 9
CALRPT will store up to 4K bytes of note data per appointment.
Obviously every computer system has its memory limits. If you
use a lot of big notes you may run out of available memory.
You may also see this message if you run CALRPT while shelled
out of another program.
*** Warning: Insufficient Memory to Process Repeating Notes
Repeating notes are subject to the same memory limitations as
standard notes discussed above.
*** ERROR! SK+ Record Size Exceeded CALRPT Limit. Processing
TERMINATED!
SK+ supposedly can have very large records (2 Billion+ Bytes).
Well CALRPT's current limit is 60K records (NOT FILE SIZE)
within a file. Normally you shouldn't come even come close to
this unless you have a LOT of repeating appointments or some
VERY big notes. If this message occurs you might want to try
deleting some of your prior years data from your calendar - it
may help.
*** ERROR! Filename Not Found or Invalid Calendar File Specified.
This message is a result of CALRPT not finding the filename
specified in the installation program or on the command line
with the /C option. Check the spelling and Drive and Path
information supplied.

VI. Installation Program
CALRPT comes with a simple installation program. This
program allows you to set some of the DEFAULTS that CALRPT uses.
Most of these are pretty straight forward but a small explanation
is appropriate at this point.
To use the installation program all you need to do is type
in CALINST. CALINST MUST be in the same directory as CALRPT and
CALRPT must not be renamed. CALINST allows you to alter the
following:
Field Defaults
Appointment File Location PERSONAL.APP
Default Days to Preview 7
Default Output Disk File PERSONAL.RPT
Highlight Foreground Color Yellow
Standard Fore/Background BrWhite/Blue
Standard Note Color LtMagta

file using DOS 3.x defaults : Current Directory, CALRPT's
Directory, and Path. You can always override this option with
the /C Command Line Option.
B. Default Days for Report
CALRPT assumes you want to view the next seven days by
default. You can override this default each time you run CALRPT
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 11
with the /D n command line option or you can change the default
here. Valid Range is 1-365.
C. Default Output Disk File Name Help
CALRPT will send it's output report to a Disk File:

the file name with the /F command line option to override this
default.
D. Default Screen Colors
CALRPT uses 5 Basic Colors; Highlighted Foreground, Standard
Foreground / Background, Note Foreground, and Message Foreground
/ Background. Use the Space/+/- keys to toggle through the color
options. The Color Sample Box shows what the current color
selections will look like (if saved).
E. Print Initialization / Termination Strings
CALRPT will send Printer Initialization and Termination
Strings when the /P parameter is specified. Enter the control
codes appropriate for your printer. To enter a Page Eject enter
<CtrlP> <CtrlL>. Only the <CrtlL> will display. You can enter
multiple codes.
F. Default Print Page Length
CALRPT will issue a Page Eject (^L) and Print a new Heading
at the end of each page. CALRPT defaults to 0 lines per page.
Enter the number of lines you would like printed on each page. If
you enter 0 no page eject will be issued.
G. Default Video Mode
CALRPT has a command line switch (/V - Max Video) to control
the default video mode. You can turn on Max Video (43/50 Lines on
EGA/VGA Screens) with the /V switch or toggle the field here with
the Space/+/- keys.
H. Weekly Separators Option
CALRPT can print Weekly Separators to indicate the end of
each week on the report. You can turn this option on with the /W
command line switch and/or you can toggle the default here with
the Space/+/- keys.
I. Print Note Option
CALRPT will print up to 4096 bytes of note information
associated with each appointment. This option can be toggled on
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 12
with the /N [n] command line switch or you can toggle the field
permanently on in this install program. If turned on permanently
here you can always limit the note output by specifying /N 1 (or
the limit of your choice on the command line. Toggle this field
with the Space/+/- keys. ;

specify the /T option on the command line. If you wish to change
the file name enter it here. Format is: d:\PATH\FILENAME.EXT.
Please make sure the Task File EXISTS! You can always specify a
different file on the command line with/T [Filename]. Resident
TaskManager is available separately.
L. Task Print Before/After Appointments
By default (and if the /T option is specified) CALRPT will
print your daily Tasks before your appointments. If you would
like to see your tasks printed after your appointments toggle the
field to AFTER.
VII. ASSOCIATION OF SHAREWARE PROFESSIONALS
The owner of WetZoft Applications is a member of the
Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP), an organization
formed in April 1987 to strengthen the future of shareware (user-
supported software) as an alternative to commercial software.
Its members, all of whom are programmers who subscribe to a code
of ethics, are committed to the concept of shareware as a method
of marketing.
ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle works
for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related
problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP
may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a
dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP
Ombudsman at P.O. Box 5786, Bellevue, WA 98006 or send a
Compuserve message via easyplex to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536
A. The primary goals of the ASP:
To inform users about shareware programs and about
shareware as a method of distributing and marketing
software;
CALendar RePorT Documentation Page: 13
To encourage broader distribution of shareware through user
groups and disk dealers who agree to identify and explain
the nature of shareware;
To assist members in marketing their software;
To provide a forum through which ASP members may
communicate, share ideas, and learn from each other; and
To foster a high degree of professionalism among shareware
authors by setting programming, marketing, and support
standards for ASP members to follow.
VIII. OTHER PROGRAMS BY WETZOFT APPLICATIONS
A. Resident-TaskManager - RTM
Resident-TaskManager is a memory-resident program to manages
lists of tasks, reminders or ToDo's. Really, this can be
anything you want it to be: a general list of things to do, a
list of appointments, tasks you've delegated, etc.
Resident-TaskManager's most important feature is it's
ability to load as a memory-resident program. That means it's
available to you whenever you need to use it. And, it only uses
about 6K while doing so.
Resident-TaskManager has the following features for managing
lists:
. Multiple lists
. Add, Modify, Delete, Repeat
. Sorting
. Prioritization
. Easy date manipulation
. A user-definable field
. Audit Files
. Simple Printing
Resident-TaskManager provides the best combination of memory
usage, simplicity, and features for managing small lists of
tasks.
B. CALTRV
CALTRV, like CALRPT, is a program that produces a nicely
formatted calendar report from Sidekick+'s Calendar file without
invoking Sidekick+. The primary difference between CALTRV and
CALRPT is that CALTRV is more paper oriented. That is it produces
a more standard type of Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Calendar
report. CALTRV was designed to be a replacement for Traveling
Sidekick, by Borland International.
