Sunbird - "attach" it to Thunderbird

[me...@cyvest.com]

Hello --

In the bottom left corner of Thunderbird are two icons ... "Mail" and
"Calendar".
I don't remember what I did to have the Calendar icon appear in TB.

When I click Calendar I see a calendar that looks like the Sunbird I
have
been using standalone.

The top bar says "November 2007 - Thunderbird".
The standalone Sunbird's top bar says "November 2007 - Sunbird".

Can anyone tell me if I can replace the Thunderbird calendar with the
Sunbird I have been using standalone?

Thanks for any help or information.

You installed Lightning, the calendar plugin for TB.

You can use them in parallel.

Thanks for responding.

I only need one calendar. Can I do one of the following:

1 - Import my Sunbird calendar into Lightning and use Lightning for my
calendar
or
2 - connect Sunbird to Thunderbird and disconnect Lightning from
Thunderbird

Thanks for any further information.

Lightning and Sunbird are developed together: Sunbird is
STANDALONE. Lightning bundles into Thunderbird. Thunder and
Lightning, get it?

Install Lightning, and you can import your Sunbird settings.

Just export your calendar into an .ics file and import that file in
Lightning.

Thank you. I imported the Sunbird-exported calendar into Lightning.

Can you tell me how to view (in Lightning's left-hand frame below the
month's calendar) the list of tasks?
I can see the option on the Calendar menu > View > Show tasks in
Calendar. I want to see the list also, if possible.

I don't use this feature, but I know it appears to the right of
the Mail window.

You indicated the calendar is in the lower left corner of the screen.
The most recent TB is now placing it on the right side of your screen
taking a full vertical frame. The date is at the top with your to-do
and tasks lists below. There is a small drop down arrow to the right of
the date that will reveal a small pop up of the full month. While I
preferred the former view you apparently are looking at it is no more.
The current version should give you the features you are looking for.

I'm sorry I said the current TB and I believe it should be the current
Lightning. Both should be updated in any case.
