Calendar + Events in Drupal 5

Question

"Events" module introduces Event content type, which has such two fields as event_start and event_end. While "Events" module has own calendar, I am need a few different calendars - so I chose Calendar module - which is based on Views.

And here goes the problem: I create a new View, select View Type = Calendar, in Fields section listbox I am able to see and add "Event:Start Time" and "Event: End Time" field, but still when saving my Calendar view I get this red message:

* The Calendar View requires at least one date field.
* The Calendar requires as arguments Calendar: Year, Calendar: Month, and Calendar: Day, or Calendar: Year and Calendar: Week

In other words, "Event:Start Time" is not seen as date field.

Is this a known Calendar+Events bug in Drupal 5 (which I have to use). Is Events module deprecated/troublesome and better be replaced with CCK+Views?

Answer 1

From what I've found at Calendar official page

Event module event fields are no longer supported. The Event module has its own calendar that you can use to display Event fields.

Apparently, Calendar users should stick to CCK+Date
