Silly or not...
Authored by: alexmathew on Jul 12, '04 04:07:47PM

its useful for some people.
I cant believe you call hunting for a particular file/folder in your hard drive before a meeting a "simpler" solution when compared to having a direct link to the file/folder in your iCal.
When your scheduling meetings - its usually useful to have all the relevant facts in your event rather than have it pop-up during an alarm.

Again, "silly" or not ... this is a useful hint. I wish Apple wouold implement a direct method to do this.

I never "hunt" for files. I keep things well organized and always know where they are. :)

I don't understand what the problem is with somebody wanting this feature. As an editor, every single event on my calendar relates to a file. I have files coming in that other people edit for me with the same or slightly different names, and since Mac offers the nice option to copy and paste files directly from a location like the desktop into mail, why not add the option to copy and paste files from, say, an email to the "note" space in the iCal event and from that note space back to another email, say, three days later, when my client needs the document that my editor sent back to me earlier in the week. All kinds of calendar applications have this feature. It's advantages are obvious. For example, why should I search through my email for a file that's been sent back to me with Apple's imperfect attachment search function which inevitably returns a bunch of emails I don't want. It's nice that people keep their files organized. So do I. However, anything that Apple can do to reduce repetitive (i.e., redundant) taks, should be done.
