Timeline view not displaying appointment...

[Sherry]

I'm trying the control out and I cannot view my appointment on the timeline view even though it's displayed for every other view.  Here is my code:

 

Dim ai As New AppointmentInfo("Test", "02/05/2009 12:00:00 PM", "02/05/2009 2:00:00 PM", Telerik.Web.UI.RecurrenceState.Occurrence)

 

ai.ProviderId = 1

 

Dim al As New List(Of AppointmentInfo)

 

al.Add(ai)

 

Dim rtProviders As New ResourceType("Providers")

 

 

Dim dtProviders As New Data.DataTable("Providers")

 

dtProviders.Columns.Add(

"ProviderId")

 

dtProviders.Columns.Add(

"ProviderName")

 

dtProviders.Rows.Add(

"1", "Edward McLaughlin")

 

dtProviders.Rows.Add(

"2", "Tom McDonald")

 

rtProviders.DataSource = dtProviders

rtProviders.ForeignKeyField =

"ProviderId"

 

rtProviders.KeyField =

"ProviderId"

 

rtProviders.TextField =

"ProviderName"

 

RadScheduler1.ResourceTypes.Add(rtProviders)

 

Dim rtRooms As New ResourceType("Rooms")

 

rtRooms.AllowMultipleValues =

False

 

 

Dim dt As New Data.DataTable("Rooms")

 

dt.Columns.Add(

"RoomId")

 

dt.Columns.Add(

"Name")

 

dt.Rows.Add(

"1", "Exam Room A")

 

rtRooms.DataSource = dt

rtRooms.KeyField =

"RoomId"

 

rtRooms.TextField =

"Name"

 

rtRooms.ForeignKeyField =

"RoomId"

 

RadScheduler1.ResourceTypes.Add(rtRooms)

RadScheduler1.TimelineView.GroupBy =

"Providers"

 

RadScheduler1.TimelineView.GroupingDirection = Telerik.Web.UI.GroupingDirection.Vertical

RadScheduler1.HoursPanelTimeFormat =

"hh:mm tt"

 

RadScheduler1.DataSource = al

RadScheduler1.DataBind()

Thanks!

Hi Edward,

How is your AppointmentInfo class defined? If you have used the AppointmentInfo class from the online demos, you will notice that the ForeignKeyField for the resource type should be of type int:

Class AppointmentInfo
        Private _id As String
        Private _subject As String
        Private _start As DateTime
        Private _end As DateTime
        Private _recurrenceRule As String
        Private _recurrenceParentId As String
        Private _userID As System.Nullable(Of Integer)

I have noticed that in the data table for the Providers resource you use strings for the ID's of the resources. I suspect that the type mismatch is the cause of the problem that you experience. Please, ensure that the ID field of the resource data table is of type int.
