Hi all,
does anyone of you know if it's possible to use a spreadsheet to as a database for a calendar (a list of events)? I.e. have a spreadsheet with columns like date, time, event, artist etc and translate that information into an online calendar.
Thanks!

If you are using CGCalendar it most likely has an import function like a lot of his modules do...

You could make a UDT to read the spreadsheet and fill Smarty variables than process a Smarty template (either from CGCalendar or own you make yourself).
Reading from a CSV would be the easiest, but there are libs for reading an Excel file, and Google has an API to enable reading from a Google Spreadsheet.
Yes it is possible, depending on your time and/or budget.
