Probably an easy question for somebody..

from event: RadScheduler2_AppointmentCreated
I am able to use e.Container.FindControl to get at my own asp:hidden cntrls inside an AppointmentTemplate

How can I get at those cntrls inside the event:
RadScheduler2_AppointmentInsert(object sender, SchedulerCancelEventArgs e)

Nice if there were an easier way to do this but basically I am making a db trip for every appointment and filling hiddens with extra data I would like to associate with the appointment. That way on the update or insert I can do my own ins/update to the db and add in those extra items. I take it the only other way to get the functionality I want would be to write my own provider??
Please at least answer the how to get at the hidden cntrls question above if you can.

Thanks.

I found this solution when I had the same problem. You should handle your updating and inserting in the event AppointmentCommand. Here's an example:

protected void RadScdler_AppointmentCommand(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.AppointmentCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "Insert")
{
/* handle insert of event into database */

  HiddenField hf = e.Container.FindControl("MyHiddenField") as HiddenField;

  /***** Do DB Insert Here **********/
        }
        else if (e.CommandName == "Update")
        {
  /* handle update of event in database */

  HiddenField hf = e.Container.FindControl("MyHiddenField") as HiddenField;

  /***** Do DB Update Here **********/
        }

}
