So I'm new to Drupal, starting with D6. I'm building a content-type custom module that includes a start date, and I'm trying to figure out how to create a calendar view that displays the all the content for this node type according to the start date, I'm hoping I'm missing something, but I can only seem to see a calendar based off node metadata, not the data itself. Is there a hook I need to implement to expose my custom date field to the view? I haven't looked at Events yet, because I was getting the feeling that there were limitations associated with that that I wanted to avoid. I will start looking into that while I await a response. Thanks in advance for your time.

Is it me?
Am I the only one doing this? Is there a better solution to this issue? Am I making any sense? Everything I've done with Drupal up until now has done exactly what I expected it to do. This piece is important, and is baffling me. Can anyone point me in a good direction for providing a calendar that shows node content based on a date entered by the user? I'm working with CCK now, and I see that I can tell the Calendar view to use the CCK-provided date. I can tell it to, but I haven't managed to get the Calendar to show anything but the node update date. I'll keep looking into it. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
