Converting multiple appointments to recurring one

[× ×™×œ]

I would like to copy all my meetings to a new machine. I exported all the
meetings to Excel, and imported it to the new machine.
All occurring meetings now appear as multiple one-time meetings.
I do not have access to the old machine, so I can not redo the export (or
copy the PST or similar solutions).
Is there some script/tool that would go over the meetings, detect identical
meetings, and create recurring ones from them?
I can write one, but as as it seems a common issue I hope someone has done
it already
Thanks

One of the many reasons why we say that export/import should never be used to
move data from one Outlook instance to another.

I've not heard of one. Try searching http://www.outlookcode.com/ to see if it
has been discussed.
