There are quite a few examples for using xamSchedule. However, I have yet to find one that shows how appointment/resource data can be savedto a data store after being changed via xamSchedule.
Who can point me to such an example?
Matt,
Thanks for your input.
From your input and others', we have successfully implemented a xamSchedule prototype which allows us to save data to our SQL Server data store.
Hi,
All the samples we have are based on a data coming from an xml file. In a SheduleDataSource class we are using LINQ to XML to generate the collections of the entities.
So using the schedule with data from DB is just populating the SheduleDataSource with DB entities – either with LINQ to SQL, EntityFramework or just ADO.NET.
The 2 major approaches are:
- working with native entities (Appointments , Resources and Calendars ) - http://samples.infragistics.com/sllob/RunSamples.aspx?cn=schedule#/schedule/day-view-single-calendar
- working with user entities using PropertyMapping - http://samples.infragistics.com/sllob/RunSamples.aspx?cn=schedule#/schedule/day-view-code-behind
Sincerely,
Matt

Thanks, Matt, for creating a feature request. Yes I have seen those links and they are helpful.
HI,
I am going to create a feature request for this sample.
Here are some links to help guide you with storing your XamSchedule data to a data store.
