Hello,
I have a RadScheduler and I have a WCF datasource.  I would like to hook the two together, but am not sure if it is flexible enough for what I need.

My problem is that I can't just "accept" the changes the user makes.  It's important that I be able to send the updated and original appointments to a function in my WCF service and have it evaluate the changes, update the appointment, and update the rest of the schedule based on the change.

As it is, I have it working, but it's incredibly slow.  I'm currently handling the AppointmentUpdate and just setting the "e.cancel" property to true so that I can do my checks then update the DB then rebind the schedule to a SQL datasource. 

Is there a better way of doing what I need to do?

Hi ChrisC.,

I am not sure if there is a better way. Have you considered using custom validation before inserting or updating an appointment? For example, currently, RadScheduler's advanced form validates the subject and ensures that it is not empty, but this can be extended. Let me know what you think of this approach.
