[RELEASE] [APP] [Jun 25, 2009] B2C - Birthday2Calendar 0.2

Description: This is a very simple application. It annoys me to all hell that if you have birthdays assigned to your contacts, Windows Mobile will not automatically add them to the calendar. Every phone I've had previous to my WM phone does this. Yeah, you can sync to Outlook, but I refuse to set Outlook up for something that should be done natively.

What's even more frustrating is that the WM5 SDK has a simple code sample (which is where I started this from) to accomplish this task yet it's still not included.

Anyways... this is my first WM application and I think it does it's job pretty well for now.

Notes:

• It currently does not duplicate entries. It will only create entries for birthday's that aren't currently in the calendar. However, if you have a birthday alert set up, but it's not in the form of the contact's "FirstName LastName's Birthday" -- it will duplicate it.

Changelog:
Version 0.2:
[+] Added ability to customize reminder time for birthday alerts.
[#] Fixed birthday start date (it now starts the event on the contact's birthday and shows their age on the event subject)
[#] Fixed bug where events couldn't be edited because of incorrect end time
[#] Fixed other minor bugs

Version 0.1:
[+] Initial Release

Todo:

• Make it pretty?
• Add support for anniversaries
• Choose "Status" for event. Ie: Free, Busy, Tentative.

If you guys find any bugs/problems, or simply have any comments, criticism, or suggestions, please let me know. The goal of this program is simply to do what it does. However if I can improve it in any way I definitely will.



Head over to XDA to download it :)
