I am looking for a small, neat desktop calendar. I don't want any facilities
to add information, just a simple month's display and with today
highlighted. I don't want it taking over the desktop, but available at all
times, but not on top.

Anything there?

TIA

Bob

Rainlendar is a customizable calendar that displays the current month. It is
a very lightweight application that doesn't use much system resources or
take much space on your desktop.

Here is another calendar, 130kb ,at the site you can look at a
picture of it , then decide if you want it.

http://www.webxpace.net/software/software.html#Calendar

I was looking for something similare and found this one - Desktop
Calendar - http://www.glenn.delahoy.com/software/index.shtml

Description from the site:
"A small calendar and event reminder that unobtrusively sits on your
desktop and is ready to use any time. No taskbar button, no system tray
icon, the calendar is transparent so it's not an eyesore and consumes
very little memory (less than 600KB idle). Enter as many daily or
regular events as you like. Float your mouse over a day to see all
events for the day. Shows a short list of upcoming events below the
calendar. Fonts, colours and tooltips are customisable so it blends in
with your desktop colour and font schemes. Events may be colour coded
for quick identification. First day of the week is customisable. Scales
as small or as big you want. Please note: this application will only
work on Windows 2K/XP."

As I suggested the other day, TClockEx meets all your criteria. Its
main purpose is to replace the clock in the system tray with text or
data of your choosing, so if you just choose time you will see no change
on your desktop. But click on the clock and up pops this month's
calendar with today highlighted. Esc removes it.

Nice find! I hadn't seen this one before. I'll probably stick with
Rainlender, http://vapaa.dc.inet.fi/~rainy/ but this is very good in
terms of configurability and function for someone who wants a basic
desktop calendar with simple reminders that doesn't get in the way.
