Introduction to the Bamboo Calendar Plus Web Part

With the Bamboo Calendar Plus Web Part, you can provide a calendar view of any list, library, or SQL Database.  Yes, SharePoint provides a list view called Calendar, where users can see Day, Week and Month view, but what if you want to see a Work Week View, or Year View, or even a Gantt View?  With SharePoint calendar view, you can specify the display column shown on the calendar, but what if there are other useful details, for example on an events list where you want to see the location and description as well?  Using the Bamboo Calendar Plus Web Part, you can display more columns using mouseover tool tips.  Lastly, what if you want to visually and quickly identify types of lists?  With the Bamboo Calendar Plus Web Part, you can color code choice columns to allow users to decipher easily between types of items. 

Shown below are visual examples of the abovementioned Calendar Plus features.
