Ah, have I been misunderstanding this a bit.
I re-read the post with the script file attached and noticed this lineVer 4.0 - added ability to define how many reminder you want to see, up to 8sigpic

probably a case of poor documentation. DL it and take a look as I have been uber busy with work and the new house. (I barely have HS running yet)

Hi Steve,
Sorry, did not know you were up to your eyes with work and espcially moving into a new house. Hope the move went smoothly.
Don't worry about the number of virtual devices your script can update, I had a look at your script and added a few more "case" lines so I can display up to 20 now. Hope you don't mind.
However one thing I noticed which you may wish to put on your list of to do things when you get a chance is if you set a year in the ini.
My birthday reminder is set to 05/11/1951 and the device shows it as 360 days till Gordons 56th Birthday. The days are correct, but the year is wrong, it will be my 57th if I make it.
If I put the computers clock forward to 01/01/2998 then it shows my correct age, therefore I assume your script is not taking into account reminders with years in them which are past, but it is still the same year.sigpic

Open the VBS script and look for the section "Set # of years in a variable" the insert these linesCode:if Datei <> 0 then if datepart("y",left(EventDate(i),5))-datepart("y",now)<0 then Datei=Datei+1 end if end if

Please feel free to make updates. I have no idea when i will be settled in and 'upand running'. This is a free script for that reason, so others can modify as needed/desired.

All the script does is set a variable device to the amount of days left until whatever. IE: if it's your wife's birthday on the 30th June and today was the 1st of June it would set the device to "29 days until your wife's birthday".
what it actually saves is configured in the ini file.
How you use it is up to you. I have a script which runs when a room becomes occupied after a length of time which tells me how many days until certain events. As I do not want it telling me all year I use a condition that it must be less than 40 days before HS announces the event.sigpic

OK, let me tell you what I have done, I entered info in the .ini file following the instr. Placed script to script folder and then placed ini file to config. folder. Now what???
Do I have to make any devices? Will it add any icons?
Do I have to make an event? and if so what type of event?
will the script speak out the count down or is this only visual?Hector
