Hi VPAFan,

I have edited the ENGLISH for the items I had mentioned in the v2.3.0 which were not updated in v2.3.1.

I have used the ManilaBirthdayLanguageTranslate.exe file to edit it, it is very useful and I am using the current edited version. However, I have found that there is one item <inOneDay value="tomorrow" /> is not included in the ManilaBirthdayLanguageTranslate.exe file. I had used an editor to edit it and upload for your updating for others to use.

VPAFan,

My home page of Manila on the screen.

What does it mean "Geb." before name and what the strange view of the data?

Second picture the inform before installing Manila birthday.

How can I repear it (like on second picture)?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi alexanl,

you have created calendar entries with custom subject.

"Geb." ist the german abbreviation of "birthday".

Go to settings/Calendar Entry-section and select the subject you want.

There you can create your own custom subject.

I hope I could help. Feel free to ask more.

The qestion is - after creaded all birthdays to calendar they don't synchronized with Outloock. On the PC NO birthdays? How can synchronized it with PC?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] DECA0515:

and how many day they live??

this is very fun ~~:D

thank you~!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi alexanl,

no idea why the calendar entries no synced . Did you see them on your device? If so, ManilaBirthday is ready and has nothing to do with syncronizing.

Try to create a new appointment on the device with normal calendar function and see if this is synced.

Witch device do you have? Witch OS?

Ok that's for now.

Hi VPAFan,

as my last post was yielding no more replies or instructions I herewith start my last attempt. Is it possible that the malfunction is the result of that issue?

HI VPAFAN,

Not sure if it is user error, but when I go into Calendar Entries, it seems to want to create calendar entries for birthdays which have already occurred this year. Is this normal? How do I stop this?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi gavb,

After you do "menu-calendar entries" you see all your contacts witch have a birthday. The checked entries have already an appointment in the calendar (appointment = calendar entry).

It is possible to create recurring entries for birthdays witch are in the past (this year). No recurring enrties of those Birthdays won't be created.

I hope this helps.

I did my first ever flash yesterday, I'm now on Laurentius26's ROM and decided to give this app another chance... Still crashing :eek:!

Could it be that the issue is with my contact list or something? I did notice that some contacts had some notes I didn't add myself, it's really disturbing.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi Peew971,

please look at the whole thread, there are some other users with issues in there contacts or try to delete the contacts an create new and then start ManilaBirthday.

Is the CompactFramework 3.5 installed ?

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gavb:
Thanks. But if I delete all calendar entries, I would then expect to see future birthdays when in the calendar view, and thus any (non-repeating) entries would be for future only, and not from the beginning of the year.

Regards,

gavb
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi gavb,

I think you misunderstood the meaning of "calendar entries ..." menu.

This is not the calendar view, this is only for creating and deleting the calendar entries and therefor the list starts with the first Birthday in the year. ManilaBirthday is not a calendar, it just can create entries that you can see in your outlook/ManilaSense calendar (or any other calendar you are using).

The main view of ManilaBirthday is the birthday-list and here you can choose if the list starts "today" or at "1. January". You can choose to see birthdays and/or anniversaries.

Just a small problem, my calendar entries are displaying %a instead of the age itself !?

Any idea ?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:

maybe there is a blank between % and a. How is your custom subject text looking? Does the other placeholder work?

and what does the calendar entry look like?

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wilcovh:
I really like this application. usefull and working well.

what i would like todo is use manila birthday to create birthdays in the calender that are not linked to a contact. if eg. a contact is a family with kids and so i would have to create a contact entry for each person in the family to get them in the Mbirthday. is it possible to create birthday entries that are not linked to contacts and visible in this great program?

I have read through the tread and could not find this.

Have i missed something here?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] davidguate:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi ChefChaudart,

I get it. In settings / Calendar Entry you did deselect the option "show age if non recurring entry".

OK this is a little bit tricky and i will think about this option and maybe change the behavior. But at this time just activate it and - bingo - you get the age in calendar entries.

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChefChaudart:
no, this option was already selected.

I tried with/without, same result.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi ChefChaudart,

ok, than it is an other strange behavior.

You are creating recurring calendar entries.

It makes no sense to have the age in an recurring entry, because the age is correct this year but not in the following years. So if you want to have the age in the entry you have to create nonrecurring entries and generate them new every year. This is <yeah> really simple. Just save your selection, delete all entries, load the selection and create the new.

Never the less I have to deal with the %a in recurring custom calendar entries. I hope we get the issue now.

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChefChaudart:
ok, nice, I fully understand.

Hi Bartimaus,

which device, which ROM, does other manually entered calendar entries sync?

The problem is definitely not from this app.

VPAFan Hi

I resolved my problem no-synchronization with Outlook. It was Setting-Reminder-active on I set it for 12:00 (24 hours format). After active off synchronized properly - I don't no why?

One precatory words - It will be useful if recurring entries possible with show age. (I can forget it after January 01 :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi alexanl,

the problem with the age and recurrind entries is that the age is correct this year and wrong all following years, because the Subject will not be change the next year.

What you can do is create nonrecurring entries and next year delete all and create new one.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gillesetisa:
I'm just watching an birthday application, this one seems cools, especially about categories filter (for me it is mandatory)

But just a question, when you do a non recurring calendar entrie (with the age), is it not possible to choose the number of year that you would like these "meetings" (example by creating for the next 3 years) ?

When your contact is a "family", you have certainly no contact for each child. How manage you that?

It will be good if the program can also scan the note (or another field if you think it is better) of contacts and add the birthdays defined on it.

We can have specific rule to define the birthdays in the note.

Example:

#ManilaBirthday

Toto Tata 21.03.1999

* Titi 22.03.2002

* Wedding 22.04.1990

#ManilaBirthday

In this example I have specific word to help the application to find the information.

I put for the first name and after the last name, and * if we need to use the field defined in the contact itself.

What do you think ?

Sorry for my bad english and best regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi gillesetisa,

this is also an visually app - what's about the pictures? You can't put them in the Note field.

An think about the future, then each of the child's will have his own handy number. So create a contact for each child and that is it.

If you think this will grow up your contacts database, don't mind about this if you wish to have non recurring entries for 3 years.

Lets talk about 3 years of calendar entries. This is a long time and i think you will get many new contacts with birthdays.

How will you manage this? Also if you want to delete an specific calendar entry - then you have to chose in which year.

I think there is an easy way to handle this: at the beginning of the year - save your selection - delete all entries - load your selection - maybe add new contacts to your selection - then create new calendar entries - that is it !!!

Is there any chance that this little program will be extended with the possibility to add birthdays manually?

ones that are not in contacts. i would like to add e.g. my sisters kids, 2 and 4 years old, but do not want to create a separate contact for each of them.

i would really appreciate that functionality added to this great program.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi wilcovh,

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wilcovh:
I had read quite a substantial bit of this 570+ post thread. used the search and could not find it. as i understand from the post you gave me it is not possible and you do not see it as a problem dat you have to create seperate entries for each child because they will have a mobile in the future.

Ok fair enough. that is your opinion, mine is different. Thanks for the time to answer.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ckacey:
even if they don't have a phone in the future (where will these children live that they won't have some form of contact that their parents don't control within 18 years?) what if they move out of the house or get an email address?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wilcovh:
can store several email adresses at one contact. but think it is useless to create a seperate contact for a kid of 2 years. there is not much chance that she will have an email address soon or move out of the parents house is it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ckacey:
I didn't catch the ages it's why I went for 18 years.

I can see what you mean, I personally put them in a group called family so they don't clutter my business and friends lists.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi ccezar2004,

if you restore contacts via active-sync they get a new ID and therefore the link to the calendar-entries is broken. You have to delete "all existing" and create new entries.

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ccezar2004:
that's not good... isn't there a workarround for this? 'cause from what i've seen manila birthday creates a not on each calendar entry with '"created by manila birth." isn't it possible to use that to check the duplicate entry?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fab55:
What I do wrong?

Hi VPAFan,

I like Manila Birthday, because I missed a functionality like this in the normal calendar app.

BUT:

I have the same problem like alexanl - Whatever I try, I cannot sync a 'Manila-Brithday-created' entry to Outlook 2007 German. (I'm syncing only calendar, no contacts etc. On this outlook, no contacts are saved. Calendar does not have any birthdays stored)

When I enable the 'reminder-active' , then Sync failed completely.

When I disable it, then Sync says: Complete without errors, but I find no (reoccurend) entry in calendar.

When I create exactly the same entry in calendar manually (also with category 'Manila Birthday' ) everything works fine.

So if you create the entry in your app, you must do something different as the manual entry does.

Do you have any suggestions?

BTW: I'm using Diamond2 with Stock ROM WM6.5 Sense 2.1 German

Thanks

Fab55
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi ccezar2004,

sure, I use this note to check for duplicates.The note contains the id of the contact to which it belongs. If every contact has a new id, I can not decide that there is already an existing entry.

So, this is not a problem of ManilaBirthday. This is because the contacts get new id's.

If you change your rom there is so much to do and hopefully you do not change it every day. ManilaBirthday gives you the possibility to delete all existing entries. This is the max. I can do for you.

I noticed this Manila command line. Maybe it will help?

\windows\manila.exe

Parameter:

--switchtopage manila://home.page

This is the command line for switching screems.

I didn't mean to require mortscript. That was just where i happened to see that command used to switch Manila pages.

As far as letting Morts use the registry data, it wouldn't require mortscript. I am asking for a "ManilaBday.exe /Hidden" command line option, so we dont see the interface and it grabs the birthday and sets them in a registry section.

Does that make more sense?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bence:
Maybe you can make reminders for birthdays too?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
@ all with this problem

please install the attached version 1.3debug and select the MenuItem "show ShortDatePattern".

If there is only one "d" in the pattern, this makes no sense.

The "d" is the representation of the day and a day with only one column makes no sense.

Maybe you have to correct this in your CountrySettings.

Also I have implemented some code to correct this wrong pattern and maybe this will make the app to work.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi howdykeith,

I can do a ShellRun with "\windows\manila.exe", "--switchtopage people.page"

and the "Manila people-page" shows up. But what I want to have is to show the page of one specific contact.

To have a "ManilaBday.exe /Hidden" command to put the information into the registry is in my opinion not good. In my case it would put 168 Birthday-Infos in the registry. No - I will not do this. All the info is in the outlook-database an can be grabbed there. So what is it what you want to do with the info?

great job you did here ... this is one of the Apps that make living easier :D

But ... if you could make a Version that runs as a Service and checks Birthdays let's say at 09:00 h and give you a pop up if there is a birthday today. And if there is one to bring up a popup with the option to open the contact card ... That would be WOW :eek: :D
