calendars and use them for reports/analysis :-)

Nathan
PS: Script in full below.

set myNames to {"Work A", "Work B"}
repeat with myName in myNames
	-- activate calendar myName
	tell application "System Events"
		tell process "iCal"
			tell window 1
				tell tool bar 1
					tell button 1
						click
						tell pop over 1
							tell scroll area 1
								tell outline 1
									tell (first row where (value of text field 1 is myName))
										select
									end tell
								end tell
							end tell
						end tell
						click
					end tell
				end tell
			end tell
