AppointmentCreated Event - AppointmentDialog stay open

[ITA]

Hi,

before i save a new appointment in my database, i have to check different issues. This i do in the "AppointmentCreated" Event.
If the Input is wrong i have to go back to the AppointmentDialog. The Problem is, that the Appointment is created an the Dialog
is closed. e.Cancel is not known.

How do i let the Dialog stay open?

Thanks
Rene

Hello Rene,

My suggestion is to use the DialogClosing event instead of the AppointmentCreated in order to check for issues with the Appointment. This way you will be able to keep the EditAppointmentDialog open as needed. Please check the example below, in which the user won't be able to confirm the Dialog if the Subject field is empty:

private void ScheduleView_DialogClosing(object sender, CancelRoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var eventArgs = e as CloseDialogEventArgs;
    var scheduleView = sender as RadScheduleView;

    if (eventArgs.DialogResult == true)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(scheduleView.EditedAppointment.Subject))
        {
            eventArgs.Cancel = true;
            MessageBox.Show("Subject cannot be empty!");
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps.

Hi Rene,

There shouldn't be any difference whether you are using custom Appointments or not. Could you please give us some more details about the desired scenario and the exact problem you are facing?

I'm looking forward to your reply.
