Countdown events OR "Mary's XXX Birthday" possible!
I had a PIM years ago which would put birthdays on a calendar from a contact
form...can't remember which one BUT...it would put "Mary's XXX Birthday" instead of just "Mary's Birthday" like we get in Outlook...wouldn't that be nice!! Related would be countdown events..."six weeks to vacation", etc. Both instances only require the ability to put a formula in the event title so we can use the datediff formula from the appointment origination or termination event date. Wouldn't that be great! ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
