Updating Sharepoint Calendar events + c# - sharepoint-2010

How can we update a sharepoint calendar without overlapping an existing event?
Say, the calendar list already has an event with EventDate - 25/Aug/2013 4:00:00 and 26/Aug/2013 15:00:00 . Now, how can I insert a new event without overlapping an already existing event?
Note: I am able to insert items to Calendar using C# code. But, I just need to know whether there is a way to insert the events without overlapping.

Google data studio Date range - Add upcoming event

Is it any possibility to select all values based on date range which is >= date which selected in data studio? Or this is still not supported.
P.S. Any other way to get an upcoming event, like if currently 8th of October, it will display which event(holiday) will be next?
The way I've achieved this in reports is to have a dimension that reflects whether the event is in the future, "Future"/"Past".
I've then filtered the table by this dimension so it only shows future events and then changed the Default Date Range to "All Date Range".
The table will now show all future events.

adding times to autofill a field VBA MSAccess

I am making a booking system on MSAccess using VBA. On my form I have fields for creating a new booking which is then to be added to a database on SQL server. I have a combo box set up to allow the user to select and activity and it then fills out the ID of the activity and the duration of the activity. This duration is a number 1 or 2 or 3 etc for how many hours the activity takes.
However my question relates to calculating a finish time for the user. I wish the finish time textbox to be auto filled out when the user selects a start time from a list of times for example, 9:00:00 (To match the format the times are stored on the sql server) and having selected an activity by adding these together. So far I have tried something like this.
Me.txtFinishTime.Text = Me.cmbStartTime.Value + Me.txtDuration.Value
It could be:
Me!txtFinishTime.Value = DateAdd("h", Me!txtDuration.Value, CDate(Me!cmbStartTime.Value))

Database mining, Auto Graph and email at certain time of the day

I have some automated machines running a Pasteurization process, sensors register values such as Temperature, time, pressure etc...
Our main control software does offers us a historic graph for such values, however its not possible to mail them. The software is able to log all the data into an Microsoft Access/ SQL database. For the company, our days start at 6am so a 24/hr period is meant to start again at 6 everyday.
Now the question:
Is there a way to mine the database (can choose either) to graph all the values from 6am last day to 6am current day (X,Y plot) Automatically in Excel, and have it Automatically sent to some mail recipients EVERY day at 6 AM?
If so, how can I do this?
You could get Excel to query the Access database (if the email recipients are in your LAN), so when you refresh the query (or you can get it do refresh automatically when you open the spreadsheet) it fetches the relevant information for the day only. So no emails would be necessary, as you always use the same spreadsheet.
To do this, first open your access database and create a view (query) to fetch the data you need (use this as a reference to get today's or yesterday's data: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Examples-of-using-dates-as-criteria-in-Access-queries-aea83b3b-46eb-43dd-8689-5fc961f21762).
Then follow this tutorial to fetch the data from your view into excel: http://www.excel-easy.com/examples/import-access-data.html

Access 97: table entry to drop off form when a date/time reached

I like to think i'm not completely useless at creating MS Access databases, but i'm definitely a failure at the SQL code side.. So as a result i'm not sure whether this is a stupid question or not!
At work i'm trying to add a "news feed" type thing to a Form on the front screen of a database used to find useful information stored in various places. At the moment my workplace is using Office 2007, but Access is the 97 version!!!! As they're only recently realizing it can be used to solve a few of their problems... we're expecting to upgrade the whole of office and access to 2010 soon.
On this database (created using access 97..) there is a "refresh" type button which simply closes and re-opens the form and thus shows the latest info entered onto the "news feed", and this also shows the current time and date. What i'd like to happen is have specific entries drop off after a period of time (which probably wont happen unless refreshed), so for example an entry will have been added regarding some server ammendments being made within the workplace so "certain systems will not be working between 8am and 5pm GMT on 9/1/12" and preferably the person who created this entry could enter a date into the form 24 hours, or even a few days, later and when this date is reached the entry would disappear. I understand this is something that may be achieved using a query but i have no idea where to start.
If anyone can help give me an idea of how to do this it would be greatly appreciated.
I apologise if this is poorly worded or not completely clear, i can elaborate if questions are asked.
many thanks,
Kris
You can make a query like this to return only the entries that are less than 3 days old:
SELECT *
FROM MyTable
WHERE CreateTime > DateAdd("d", -3, Now())
In your form, you can define a timer interval and a timer event handler (see the "Event" tab on the properties window). You could use it to requery your list (Me!lstNews.Requery).
In the table you can define the column "CreateTime" as data type "Date/Time" and define its default value as =Now(). This way no text box is required to enter this data.
EDIT:
How to configure the timer in an Access Form (time is in milliseconds):
