Tara2 Thanks a lot Shouldn't we say "I have a party tomorrow" because a party can't be scheduled unlike a lesson or exam? If you think that the present simple suggests "scheduled", then for you I have a party tomorrow suggests "scheduled". But you say you don't believe a party can be scheduled, so why do you think we should use the form that suggests "scheduled"?
