Appointment/scheduling software?

Can anyone recommend a good (hopefully free but not required) appointment/scheduling program?

I want to be able to set blocks of time as certain activities. Like every Monday-Wednesday from 3-5pm I do whatever and it automatically fills in that block of time for the entire year, etc. In addition to that I want to be able to set certain dates like birthdays, appointments, etc. So.. like I said, appointments AND long term schedule creation.

Google Calendar can do everything you just asked for.

Set events to repeat daily, on weekdays (Mon - Fri), Mon/Wed/Fri, Tues/Thurs, weekly, monthly, or yearly.

I've used it for years and LOVE it. And, of course, there are phone apps for it as well.

I'd like to avoid anything that is online. I want a local copy that I can backup, etc. Not to mention I'm trying to move away from using ANYTHING Google offers period. Thanks for the advice though.

I use one called "Efficient PIM" you can put it on a USB stick, and it does everything you want and a lot of other things.

That one's pretty good for what you're asking.

No it's not. He want's something that he can add birthday/anniv/etc dates to, not something made for daily time management.
