How do I import outlook 2007 calendar to a 2000 outlook calendar?

Cheri

I exported my 2000 outlook calendar from work on to a flashdrive and imported
it onto my 2007 outlook calendar at home with no problem. I was trying to
get caught up with my work. I exported the saved work (from outlook calendar
2007) to my flash drive and brought it back to work so I could import all the
work I did but the computer tells me "Properties for this information service
must be defined prior to use" then it states " The .pst file is not
compatible with this version of personal folders information service." I
dont want to redo all the hours of work I did last night. Is there an
solution.. Please tell me yes!!!! HELP!!!!!

The solution is to transfer the data correctly. Export and import are not the
correct tools to transfer data between two Outlooks. Instead., copy PSTs and
open them in the Outlook instance you're using. Keep in mind, as well, that
Outlook 2007 uses a format of PST that cannot be used by Outlook 2000.
Instead you must create a 97-2002 format PST and copy the items or folders to
it, then transfer that PST to the Outlook 2000 instance. If you need more
detail, write back.
