===On Rainlendar:===
 
I tried this one out.  Hopes are not very good for making
this calendar function properly under ODIN, any build.
Using 20050306 debug, you first have to acquire from
Win2k or WinXP, files msvcp60.dll oleacc.dll and oleaccrc.dll
but even with these you will still get alot of N-E-A rc 127
failures as can be seen in the odin32_0.log.  This Rainlendar
package relys on too many Windows functions that ODIN has not
been coded for.  But anyway, I got it to come up to a point.
After replying IGNORE to the Non-Existing-API error:
oleacc.dll -> Hwnd-UserSize (loaded by OLE32.DLL) the
calendar appears in the upper left corner of your desktop in
the form of a 2 inch square BLACK block.  At the same time the
Rainlendar icon appears in the systray.  If you click on this
systray icon, the configuration panels will cleanly display
and you can 'play' with the various settings.  If you click
on 'quit' the program will cleanly exit.  The problem with
the Black Block situation, I feel, stems from the programs
use of a Windows transparency function which the program is
trying to cutely use to place the calendar alpha\numerics
onto the desktop.  Try as I may, I could not find a way to
make the wanted data appear in the Black Block area. So,
I finally gave up.  But, I installed in on WinXP and it
looks kinda kool.

On Rainlendar:

I tried this one out. Hopes are not very good for making this calendar function properly under ODIN, any build. Using 20050306 debug, you first have to acquire from Win2k or WinXP, files msvcp60.dll oleacc.dll and oleaccrc.dll but even with these you will still get alot of N-E-A rc 127 failures as can be seen in the odin32_0.log. This Rainlendar package relys on too many Windows functions that ODIN has not been coded for. But anyway, I got it to come up to a point. After replying IGNORE to the Non-Existing-API error: oleacc.dll -> Hwnd-UserSize (loaded by OLE32.DLL) the calendar appears in the upper left corner of your desktop in the form of a 2 inch square BLACK block. At the same time the Rainlendar icon appears in the systray. If you click on this systray icon, the configuration panels will cleanly display and you can 'play' with the various settings. If you click on 'quit' the program will cleanly exit. The problem with the Black Block situation, I feel, stems from the programs use of a Windows transparency function which the program is trying to cutely use to place the calendar alpha\numerics onto the desktop. Try as I may, I could not find a way to make the wanted data appear in the Black Block area. So, I finally gave up. But, I installed in on WinXP and it looks kinda kool.
