Summary: Save your Money !
Review: I bought this program for the sole purpose of creating a few personalized calendars for Christmas gifts - it has proven to be a waste of time and money.

It is not very user friendly and there is not much online support. I wasn't trying to do anything fancy - just a simple calendar and I gave up trying to figure it out. It also crashed my new Windows XP computer a few times.

I would not recommend this software - I have since created my calendar with Microsoft Publisher's Calendar wizard. I wish I had tried that first ...... oh well, live and learn.

Summary: There's nothing else quite like it
Review: I have used Calendar Creator since DOS ver 4.0 which included an excellent printed manual. This is the only program I have found that can print a multi-week format and have a variety of both repeating and non-repeating events entered. The learning curve is more difficult with the online help (no manual) and a lot of trial and error. Also there does not seem to be a significant difference from version 8 to version 9. However, once the program is mastered you can print a multitude of different type calendars in different colors with an enormous selection of images. I have found no other software tool that can do what this one can do.

Summary: Don't bother ...
Review: I used Calender Creator 4.0 and was very satisfied with the performance of the software. I had to upgrade due conflicts with printing and my operating system. After several hours with the tech support people, I have come to the conclusion, dust off the old computer which operated under Windows 95, reload the 4.0 version and be satisfied once more...I do not recommend this software.

Summary: Works Poorly with Other Applications
Review: I've used this title for years, and was drawn into buying this particular version by the claims of PDA compatibility. When I received the product and installed it, I learned that in the help section that "certain features of Calendar Creator and the Palm handhelds are not fully compatible, and may affect your data when synchronized." What an understatement!

My Palm (a Tungsten T) would not accept the repeating events from Calendar Creator. Then to add insult to injury the synchronization process actually CHANGED the CC9 events I had entered! It is bad enough that a Palm will not accept some CC9 events, contrary to the product advertisements. To modify the CC9 events in the CC9 program itself is a serious flaw in the software.

Calendar Creator does well as a stand-alone product. When I have tried to use it with another application however, it fails repeatedly. Upgrading to this version is definitely a waste of money.

Summary: Don't bother!
Review: The interface is not user friendly. It is very limited graphically. It will only create visually horrible calenders. I'm sorry I wasted my money! I want something simple to use, with an intuitive interface, that puts out nice, smooth graphics. This is so far from that it's not funny.

Summary: Don't waste your time with this
Review: This is great if all you want to do is print blank calendars. Forget about trying to put in repeating appointments or events. Lots of great sounding features - too bad they don't work on any of the Windows operating systems. They had a great product years and years ago, but have gone downhill ever since. Don't waste your time or money with this program.

Review: This product doesn't even deserve a star. Printing blank calendars is even a challenge. Some calendars don't work properly and upcoming holidays don't match the right dates. What a complete waste of time and money!
