title: How to show a simple list of events in a content query webpart in SharePoint 2007
body: <p>This should be really simple in SharePoint, but I can't figure out how to do it:
  I simply want to show a list of upcoming events from a calendar in a content query webpart:</p>
  
  <ol start="12">
  <li>Aug 12:00 Meeting re new sales plan</li>
  <li>Aug 09:00 Party</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I can use the content query webpart (CQWP) to do this for pages or documents or news articles, but apparently not calendar items.
  I can create something like this with the list view webpart, but then I can't control the exact layout and styles. That is why I want to use the content query webpart.</p>
