How do you set these out?

[Guest fraser]

You could write a VBScript macro for Outlook that could download the fixtures from the web directly into the calendar. I don't think it would be too difficult, I've done similar things in Excel, but I've never worked with the VBScript appointment objects.

The following (completely untested code) is an example I cobbled together from the VBScript man pages:

Function newFixture()


    Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")


    Set myItem = myOlApp.CreateItem(olAppointmentItem)




    myItem.Subject = "Rangers vs. Celtic"


    myItem.Start = #9/24/1997 1:30:00 PM#


    myItem.Duration = 90




End Function

The code to download from the web is pretty easy. All you do is downlod the data, and call a modified (variablised) version of the above function to add each fixture. You'd need to check for duplicates. This can all be done to automatically start when Outlook is loaded, so every time you sync, you get an updated fixture list on your phone.

The above code isn't complete either, you'll need to set the meeting type (appointment/meeting etc) to whatever you want, as well as reminders etc.
