As you might now know Alpha Calendar Pro is an alpha five app that lets you connect your Alpha Five Tables (or SQL) to Flash Calendar(the third party calendar software) without having to code anything.
Some people have ask me for drag and drop functionality on Alpha Calendar Pro which to this date is not possible (Maybe version 2.0 will have it).
In the other hand Flash Calendar does has this functionality by its self on what they call the Administrative Mode, the drawback is that the info would not be stored in your tables (it is automatically stored in an Xml file that works as a back end) besides some of the other nit features you get when using Alpha Calendar Pro with Flash Calendar like filtering the events in the calendar by logged user or any other session variable you want.
Because some people might find this kind off setup useful I prepared the next video on how to setup Flash calendars administrative mode

With that said Alpha Calendar Pro could be of great help even on this scenario because if you already have a table with events alpha calendar would export it automatically to the XML file so you can start using the calendar, besides you can change the look and labels of the calendar without having to manually edit the xml files and without coding
NOTE: when using Alpha Calendar Pro Full Functionality you dont need to install a PHP server or any additional software other than Alpha Five, Flash Calendar and Alpha Calendar Pro
