hi again .. 

so using the source in the KB article, what I extracted from it was the following to incorporate that functionality in my project:

in the form load event I wrote following 2 lines:

dayview.CreationFilter = New CreationFilter_CustomAppointmentText(dayview, AppointmentTextDisplayStyle.Automatic)

displaytype()

where the sub is the following:

    Sub displaytype()

        Dim displayStyle As AppointmentTextDisplayStyle

        ' Iterate the listbox's SelectedItems collection, and

        ' add the bit that corresponds to the constant to

        ' the stack variable

        Dim enumVal As AppointmentTextDisplayStyle = AppointmentTextDisplayStyle.Subject

        Dim creationFilter As CreationFilter_CustomAppointmentText = dayview.CreationFilter

        displayStyle = (displayStyle Or enumVal)

        If Not creationFilter Is Nothing Then

            creationFilter.DisplayStyle = displayStyle

        End If

    End Sub

Hello,

Please let us know if you need any other assistance.

i just put the license file that i had in place of the sample one the sample builds fine.

this sample that i downloaded from that kb article gives me an error while I build it:
