"Google is your friend" = do your own research and then post here if you find nothing AND add that you have already searched the web and found nothing that suits. That saying also goes for the hundreds of the same questions asked and answered here weekly.

After furious head scratching, Lady Dungeness asked:
| Milly,
|
| Those law office programs cost a lot of money. Especially for small
| practices, why shouldn't we take advantage of the tools in the Office
| suite? There's enough power in these applications to allow us to meet
| our needs, with a bit of tweaking.
|
| I think what OP was looking for was how to automate a tickler system;
| when a trial date comes up, trial-prep deadline schedule based on the
| case type, enter the trial date, and bingo, the calendars are
| populated with calendar deadlines and schedules for what to do, when
| to do it, and when the deadline is.
|
| I'm willing to bet that OP already knew about the commerical products
| on the market, the cost, and the conflicts they have with already
| intstalled software such as Outlook.
|
| These groups have gotten into a habit lately of saying "Google is your
| friend." Just what is that supposed to mean? Does that mean, don't
| post to our group because Google is out there? Then why not close
| down the newsgroups?
|
| Don't mean to be ornery; just trying to express my point of view.

||
||| I have a law firm client who is running SBS 2003 with OL2003 on the
||| desktops. They are looking for a way to autocreate calendar items on
||| the group calendar based on an upcoming trial date. These items can
||| be a various time intervals prior to the trial date. Is there a way
||| to autocreate (I assume using macros) these calendar/task items
||| and/or is there an applet already out there that does this? thanks
||| for any help you can provide.
