change/add descripttion when update an appointment

[Allen]

I trying to add a description "Override" when update an appointment. 

 

I'm using e.ModifiedAppointment.Description = "Override", but it doesn't work.
Here is my scripts:

 

Protected Sub MyAvailability1_AppointmentUpdate(sender As Object, e As AppointmentUpdateEventArgs) Handles RadScheduler1.AppointmentUpdate
        Dim scheduler As RadScheduler = DirectCast(sender, RadScheduler)
        If e.ModifiedAppointment.Subject = "Preference" Then
            For Each app As Appointment In scheduler.Appointments.GetAppointmentsInRange(e.ModifiedAppointment.Start, e.ModifiedAppointment.[End])

                If app.Subject = "Availability" Then
                    If app.Start > e.ModifiedAppointment.Start OrElse app.[End] < e.ModifiedAppointment.[End] Then
                        e.Cancel = True
                    End If
                End If

            Next
        End If

        If e.ModifiedAppointment.Subject = "Availability" Then
            For Each app As Appointment In scheduler.Appointments.GetAppointmentsInRange(e.ModifiedAppointment.Start, e.ModifiedAppointment.[End])

                If app.Subject = "Preference" Then
                    If app.Start < e.ModifiedAppointment.Start OrElse app.[End] > e.ModifiedAppointment.[End] Then
                        e.Cancel = True
                    End If
                End If
            Next
        End If
        e.ModifiedAppointment.Description = "Override"
    End Sub

Hi Allen,

The following definition of RadScheduler works when I test it locally:

<telerik:RadScheduler ID="RadScheduler1" runat="server" EnableDescriptionField="true" OnAppointmentUpdate="RadScheduler1_AppointmentUpdate">
</telerik:RadScheduler>

Protected Sub RadScheduler1_AppointmentUpdate(sender As Object, e As AppointmentUpdateEventArgs)
    e.ModifiedAppointment.Description = e.ModifiedAppointment.Description + " description added!"
End Sub

What is the version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX that you use in your  application?

Kind regards,

Another question is that can i do this on the client side?

Hello Allen,

Make sure that you have enabled the description field of RadScheduler  -- it is enabled by setting the property EnableDescriptionField to 'True'.

The following help article contains information on how to to access the controls inside the advanced form of RadScheduler: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/scheduler-customizing-advanced-form-javascript-jquery-css.html.

All the best,
