I have a beginner Telerik question, or rather a request for advice. I'm still getting acquainted with the toolkit, so I'm not really sure which of the two components would be better for what I am trying to do.

I want to output a calendar in typical calendar view where each date has exactly one event (exercise of the day). When you click on the event, a window pops up (not a javascript popup like the ones that get blocked, but a div) with information about the event.

Can I do this using the calendar control? I couldn't see how to set text aside from the day number text. Would a scheduler control be better? Wouldn't a scheduler control be overkill? Is there a control for doing the popup that I want?

Any advice anyone can give would be great.

I've really enjoyed the Telerik controls and documentation. You guys do an amazing job. You make programming fun.

Hello David,

Thank you for the nice words about our controls and online resources. Our constant goal is to enrich the object model of our products, optimize their performance and enhance the set of support resources to facilitate the developers' lives.

Concerning your question:
I think that for this type of data visualization you can utilize our RadScheduler component in combination with RadToolTip. Review the following integration demo as well as the rest of the RadScheduler examples and documentation for more details.
 
Kind regards,
