How to set up a Caching Calender... ?

Post by darth trader » 28 December 12 9:14 am

With the new year upon us, I would like to fill in my caching calender, ie, find at least 1 geocache on every day of the year. (lucky for me I got the leapday cache this year) I had smart phone reminders set up on my idevice this year using a google calender set up through a macro in my GSAK database this year.

Problem is, I cant work out how I did it?
Do you know of an easy way to do this?
Maybe some other folk have the same goal...

Wow, it would have been cool to know that!!
In may this year, I simply made an appointment for every day I need to still find a cache on. As the year went on, if I didn't find a cache on that day, I changed the year of the appointment to next year. If I did find a cache, I deleted the entry. That way my calendar is a rolling one of day's I still need to find a cache on.
Sorry, this doesn't really help you

Yep, as above... I am done now but the way to do it is Set a reoccurring appointment (once per year) on each day you need a find. If you find one, delete the appointment.

Dont forget to set a reminder the Day before! ;)

if you have GSAK you can use some of the Macros too eg http://gsak.net/board/index.php?s=60f67 ... ntry116140 and then you can import that into your Google/Outlook calendar

You have to put it on the interwebs somewhere else and link to it
