Upgraded to this version from Calendar Creator Deluxe 8.0, primarily because 8.0 wouldn't recognize either my existing HP LaserJet or a new HP Deskjet that replaced another deskjet recognized by CC 8.0. The upgrade install was easy, and all of the calendars and settings from v8.0 imported flawlessly into v12.1. Of equal importance to us, v12.1 recognized both of our printers - it uses the Windows 7 printer application instead of v8.0's reliance on installed printer drivers.

CC is easy to use once you've used it for a while. There are some challenging areas - such as "programming" the functions app to automatically update birthday/anniversary years automatically, but once the function has been successfully used, it's maintenance-free.

CC is a good calender program for the PC, and provides more functionality than the printable calendars from Yahoo, Google, Outlook, etc.

So far, the main reason I bought this version cannot be made to work - it won't import dates from my Outlook 2007 files. There is no documentation in the box nor is there a printable manual - just help screens. Displays of some option screens are distorted when certain screen resolutions are used, making reading difficult - just as with version 8.0 that I replaced. In fact, it is very much like the old version in most respects, even though it advanced 4.1 "clicks" in the stated version number. But then,its only [$], so no great loss.

    Comments about Encore Calendar Creator Deluxe v12.1:

    I have used Calendar Creator off and on for several years. I really can't see that the lastest version is that much different from the Calendar Creator that I used 20 years ago. You would think that some major changes would have been made in the program in that length of time.

      Working calendars

      Comments about Encore Calendar Creator Deluxe v12.1:

      Works great as a calendar and with included graphics. It's time consuming and tedious to add your own graphics to the program. Difficult to change formats once it's started but great if you already know your layout. Love the fact that I can input family birthrates and they are maintained for additional years, but was difficult to use those same dates to create a completely new calendar. Best program for the price I've seen and even more expensive programs are not as nice.

      • Q:

        I am currently using a different program to create calendars. I do need to upgrade. I create calendars for about 20 staff and 100 clients. These calendars are printed monthly. My current program allows me to save the staff contact info and also the clients contact info and transfers this information to the bottom of the calendar from month to month so that I do not have to re-enter the information monthly. Will this program also do this?

        Hi, I'm considering purchasing this program but I would like to know if I'm able to do a certain things with it first. 1) Are you able to create a plain monthly calendar without any pictures? 2) Are you able to add text to individual date boxes? 3) Are you able to adjust the font, font size, and text alignment? I like to have the text in the date boxes left justified instead of automatically centered. Please write back when you can. Thanks!

          If you have an older version of this Calendar Create software, it will import your old information! If it's an alternate manufacturer, it's not likely to work.

        Does this calendar have 5, 10 or 15 minute appointment increments? Does this calendar have group colors; like birthdays are in one color, appointments in another color, etc.? Does this calendar have bells or other sounds when a schedule event is coming up? Does this calendar have an alarm that you can set 1 week, 4 days or 7 hours before an event? Does this calendar work as an organizer, day planner, etc.? Does this calendar list just upcoming events with the date & time or does it have to print out the whole day, week, etc.? I would like to know in detail any and all additional features this calendar has.

        • CUSTOMER CARE

          A:

          I'm sorry for the confusion with this product. It is software to create printed calendars, not a calendar or appointment program. If you needed software to create a database of appointments, you can use Microsoft Outlook. The calendar feature will allow you to create appointments with reminders that will open as a window on your computer screen. That is Staples item number 866143 and it is also an email software so you can send reminders of appointments to other people via their email address.
