You have to write a hook for tcemain_processdatamap.

I did it like this:

class tx_cal_tcemain_processdatamap {
	function processDatamap_postProcessFieldArray($status, $table, $id,
&$fieldArray, &$this) {
		if ($table == 'tx_cal_event') {
			$row = t3lib_BEfunc::getRecord ($table, $id);
				//do what you want to do
			}
   		}
	}
}

[...]
}

Mario
