Introduction - The purpose of this program is to allow you to generate a monthly calendar, with events, for any month of the year. The calendar is generated as an HTML file, which can be read by any of the standard Internet browsers. Calendars can also be saved and reloaded from one month to another, if desired.

Creating an HTML Calendar

To create a completely new calendar, simply select the month and the year of the calendar. The desired month will be displayed, and you can add, delete, or change events for each day. To edit events, double click on the day for which you want to add an event. Then, simply add one event per line. Deleting a line deletes that event. You can also use the standard Cut, Copy, and Paste, and delete functions by highlighting text, right-clicking your mouse, and selecting the desired function from a menu. You can clear all events in the calendar by choosing Clear from the events menu.
