Events View Filtering Phenomena

[shaase]

I am using WSS 2.0 and FrontPage 2003.
I have to create a weekly E-Newsletter page. There would be one webpart
page per week. All would be stored in a document library.
Part of the E-Newsletter displays info from the Events List for that week.
I have done two varities of aspx pages; one with the Events webpart placed
on the page, the other using a DataView. In both cases, the web part is
filtered by the Event's Begin field.
I have noticed that the ../Events/AllItems.aspx page has a million 'Events'
views under the 'Select a View' section.
It appears the WSS or FrontPage creates a new Events view for each aspx page.
Is there anyway to get around this?
Is there a non-visible webpart that could be put on each page that could be
set to a date and then used to feed the Events webpart as a parameter?
Or is there some code (CAML?) that could be inserted into each page that
would feed a date parameter to the filter condition?
This is a pain!!!

Thanx in advance!

Thanx for the Update!!!

In fact, I already had this in that same newsgroup but with no replies.
Since it relates to FrontPage, I thought I would try here as well!

I am attempting to use a XML Web Part with a node date value. I am hoping
that I can pass that node as a parameter to my Dataview. It's not working
yet but I will keep trying

Thanx again,
