Yes (contacts template already has it).

Regards "simple comma separator" - with further reflection, I could simplify my suggestion to something like, for example:

[Begin Date] - [Begin Time] - [Company] ([Location])

So, with values such as: 3/19/2007, 4:30pm, Kinook, Blue Oyster Bar
Using UR style formatting, I’d end up with an automatically calculated item title of: 03/19/2007 - 4:30 PM - Kinook (Blue Oyster Bar)

In other words, clearly bracket attribute names, (which are obviously replaced with their respective values), whilst the text in between is rendered as is.

You mention elsewhere señor quant that there might be ... less forum responses from kinook lately? ... I haven't been 'round long, but had the same feeling. I might have a chat with them.
