Is there a good way to the list of resource types and resources be specific based upon the user or the appointment type or other such logic.
It seems the resources are loaded once, at the time that the scheduler is created. Unfortunately, in the scenario that I'm dealing with the user may not have access to those resources or resource types and the resources that are available may not be appropriate for that type of appointment. I'm using web services and would be comfortable with calling the service get a new listing of resources based upon the the appointment's id, but how do I create resources/resource types dynamically on the client side?
I did notice that the SchedulderResourceCollection has an insert method, but does not have an inserttype method.
As a side note: I was thinking that I could just add my own dropdowns and list boxes to appointment templates and all would display correctly. This would imply that I would not use resources at all, i.e. managing the resources manually. Is this reasonable? If so, how would I group based upon resources?
Many thanks,
Marc

Hi Marc,
Your assumption is correct - resource types are loaded once and cannot be specified on per appointment basis. If you need to group RadScheduler, please refer to the Notes on resource grouping help topic.
You can use custtom attributes and customize the default advanced form but you won't be able to group RadScheduler but custom attributes. Grouping is only possible with resource types.
