You can use the SaveTo method to save the schedule data to a file on the hard disk or to a stream in a binary or a XML format. Calling this method will save all schedule data, including appointments, contacts, tasks, resources, etc. Loading the data back can be done via the LoadFrom method. Here is a code that illustrates how to save the schedule data in a XML format to a file named 'd:\schedule.xml'. This code also assumes that the variable 'calendar' references an existing Calendar instance.

calendar.Schedule.SaveTo("d:\schedule.xml", MindFusion.Scheduling.ContentType.Xml) 

As you have suggested, the method SaveToDataSource is used to serialize the schedule data to a database. In order to use it, you have to add a data source to you application, then assign this data source to the DataSource property of the Calendar control. You have to also assign the appropriate data members in the data source to the corresponding DataMember properties in the Calendar. For more information on how to do this, please refer to the DataBinding sample which comes with the installation.
