Agreed.  If someone could post the completed upgraded module that would be great!   Pleast take pitty on those of us (speaking for myself only, of course) who don't have the know how to go through the lenghty instructions in this thread.  thx

Hello
I have createad a DNN4 Events WAP (Web Application Project) source Solution für VS 2005 / .net 2. All projects from this module's version 03.03.08 are included with source-code.

The solution is based on the informations from Vladan Strigo's articles about how to setup a DNN development Enviroment Setup for Visual Studio 2005:
http://vladan.strigo.net/projects/blankmodule-dnn-dev.-enviroment-setup-for-visual-studio-2005 (thanks Vladan!)

Prerequisites:
- VS 2005 with WAP support (ServicePack 1)
- Setup DNN development environment with DNN 4.7, install setup (say dnnEventsDev).

What I did (for your information):
Build a WAP structure within ..\DesktopModules\Events\
- Copy content of Resources.zip within Events_03.03.08_Source.zip to ..\dnnEventsDev\Desktopmodules\Events.
- Copy files *.SqlDataProvider from Events_03.03.08_Source to ..\Events\Providers\SqlDataProvider\.
- Copy the other files within Events_03.03.08_Source.zip (excluded Resources.zip and dll's) to ...\Events\.
- Open DotNetNuke.Events.sln with VS 2005 and convert to VS 2005 with the assistent.
- Result: only 4 errors, 74 warnings.
- Made some changes like correct references, Web-settings within the projects-settings (see Vladan's article).
- Converted DotNetNuke.Events project to WAP project.
- Correct the errors.
- Correct some of the warnings (25 remained).
- Made some changes (see word 'N. Pitsch' within code comments).
- Excluded BuildSupport-Project and AssemblyInfo.vb files except that within DotNetNuke.Events-Project.
- Write a stored procedure to replace the stored procedure EventsAVCalendarList (see '03.03.09.SqlDataProvider').
- I didn't delete anything.
- I have build this module on a clean DNN installation: no errors, it runs!
- I have also build a PA and have installed it with success.

You can start here:
Build the module source and open it within your testing-environment.
- Open a DNN testing environment, without Events-Module installed.
- Download DNN_Events_03.03.09_Source.zip below and copy it's content to ..\DesktopModules\Events\ within our testing environment.
- Start DotNetNuke.Events.sln.
- Set the correct path to your testing environment within Web-Tab of your DotNetNuke.Events Project Settings.
- Check the references within all projects.
- Build the solution. There should be no errors.
- Open your testing environment and login as host.
- Build tables and stored procedures: go to host.. SQL and load all *.SqlDataProvider files (from 03.01.00.SqlDataProvider to 03.03.09.SqlDataProvider) and execute them as scripts.
- Go to Host.. Module Definitions and import the Events - Module definition (select DNN_Events.dnn from 2. dropdown).
- Now you should be able to load the module within your testing environment.
- You can make changes, rebuild the solution.

Warnings, trouble:
- DO USE THIS MODULE AT YOUR RISK! There may be fatal errors.
- I'm not an experienced developer, so I might have overseen something important.
- The module version is 03.03.09! I made this change only for testing purposes, so i could integrate the stored procedure which repairs the EventsAVCalendarList sproc (see above). This doesn't mean at all that the module should be stable!
- There is a lot of code which should be converted to .net framework 2.
- It is possible to start debug the module from DotNetNuke.Events.sln. But Breakpoints become disabled when the module is running. Does somebody know the cause??

Kind regards
Nicolo
