I will have a look, thanks!  
But so far I’ve been rebuilding in Glide what other services do. I succeeded in Google Calendar, now I was hoping to do the same with Microsoft. But maybe I want too much myself!

Jeff, obviously I miss some basis Glide knowledge :-). How do I separate those from a date and time column?

It would just be an extension of what I showed you yesterday. But 13 columns is starting to get a bit silly. At this point you’d be better off using the JavaScript option - that’s just a single column.

Ah, sorted. Yeah in a way you’re right! And the JavaScript option might be best now! On the other hand am I then introducing something I don’t know anything about. But might be best for now!

The site can’t be reached, might not exist anymore.

Yeah, I still use the templates nowadays. Seems like that URL is not a front-end website, it just servers the purpose of building links.

I incorporated it in an app that hasn’t been released yet, but tomorrow or so I will make it a solo app.  
It might still be too complex according to some, but I understand what I have been doing and I’m a no coder at heart 😉 (a necessity 😉 )
