Hello, after reading through the forum post I have seen numerous examples of people attempting to work with the Recurrence feature of the scheduler. Specifically the RecurrenceRule and how to manually create it and insert it.
One of the more use posts was http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/scheduler/applying-recurrence-programatically-on-server-side.aspx
My question is if there is any documentation or resource anywhere that describes what is going on behind the scenes with the format of the RecurreneRule string and specifically the format and specifications of the string, additionally would like to know what is happening in the data store, in my case a sql server table.
I have successfully implemented a RadWindow in place of the AdvancedInsert/Edit forms as I am much more comfortable with the control it gives me of the design and layout. The out of the box functionality of the scheduler, while nice, hides much of the complexity of what is happening with the CSS Classes, recurrence and resources rules etc. I prefer more transparency in my applications to know exactly what is going on and would prefer to manage recurrence, resources, styles etc myself.
From what I have read and been able to accomplish so far it appears managing the recurrence and resources manually is possible.
Thanks,
Eric

Hello Eric,
We don't have such special documentation for the recurrence engine. Here is the currently available topic on Working with Recurring Appointments, but it is far from the depth and comprehensiveness that you are looking for. If there is an increased demand for more explanation on the matter, we will update the documentation accordingly.
For your case, to get a better understanding of recurrence, resources, etc in the advanced form, I suggest you review this demo: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/scheduler/examples/advancedformtemplate/defaultcs.aspx
Download a sample from the kb article and examine the code of the AdvancedForm user control.
All the best,
