how to create a RecurrenceRule string in XML

[Tanuj]

Hi,
i am using an XML data file for my scheduler, i am dynamically creating the file and storing on the disk in this location(

 

Server.MapPath(

"~/App_Data/Calendar.xml")), everything is working fine as expected.

now i need to create the <RecurrenceRule> tag in the xml, i was looking at one example, but i am not sure how to create the RecurrenceRule String, please advice if there are any existing functions that i can use to build this string?

here is what i have for a training class and their corresponding formats
(1) StartDate (ex:  "11/10/2010")
(2) EndDate  (ex: "12/12/2010")
(3) StartTime (ex : "9:30AM")
(4) EndTime (ex: "1:30PM")
(5) Days of Week (ex: "Mon,Wed,Fri")

<Appointment>
  <ID>2</ID>
  <Subject>Technical meeting</Subject>
  <Start>2007-03-30T06:30Z</Start>
  <End>2007-03-30T07:30Z</End>
  <RecurrenceRule><![CDATA[
          DTSTART:20070330T063000Z
          DTEND:20070330T073000Z
          RRULE:FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20070406T210000Z;BYDAY=MO,TU,WE,TH,FR;
          ]]></RecurrenceRule>
  <Resources>
    <Room Key="1" />
    <User Key="1" />
  </Resources>
  <Attribute Key="CustomAttribute" Value="1" />
</Appointment>

Hi Tanuj,

I recommend you use XmlSchedulerProvider as in this demo. It will take care of recurring appointments, reminders and custom attributes automatically.
