Hello again,

I did a bit of research and found an array in the GdkCalendar structure 
called marked_dates.  So I tried to use the Gtk::Calendar::gobj method 
this way to access it:

Gtk::Calendar calendar;

for(gint i = 0; i < 31; i++
   if(calendar.gobj()->marked_date[i])
   {
       // do some stuff here
   }

When I compile this, I get the following errors:

employee.cpp:1823: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct _GtkCalendar
/opt/gnome/include/gtkmm-2.4/gtkmm/calendar.h:33: error: forward 
declaration of `struct _GtkCalendar'
make: *** [employee.o] Error 1

I think I'm probably on the right track here...  but I'm probably 
skipping an object reference somehow.  Anyone care to enlighten me?

Thanks again,

Bob Caryl
