Hi Austin
Many thanks for the reply and I had a feeling I would have to get a techie!!!
Now if the great minds at Google could plug this together... ;-)
All the best Craig

Hi Craig,
What you are proposing is absolutely possible by combining the power of the two products via the API.
You can write a program that periodically inspect the Docs or Spreadsheet using GData API and parse out any new content to create calendar event entries to be inserted to Calendar. This would make an interesting mash-up =)

I am thinking aloud really and wondering with the launch of the data entry form in Google Docs is it now possible to automatically add new data through this to a Google Calendar?
This could be very useful for letting people update a public calendar without me having to take emails and manually update things myself.
Maybe something like this is already out there, if so it would be great if someone could point me in the right direction.
Many thanks
