How to Import Calendar from Outlook to Vista Windows Calendar

[John E. Golden]

Hello,

I've managed to import my e-mail and my Contacts into Vista, but I can't
figure out how to import my Calendar.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

IMHO, you'd be better off sticking with Outlook, if you have 2003 or newer..

But...here's what I tried... and it seemed to work...

In Outlook (I have version 2003), export to a CSV file.

Went to my calendar on Gmail.com
import the CSV file to Google calendar
export to .ics file (had to use help for these two steps, as it's not
straightforward)

Windows Calendar:
import the .ics file

I have Outlook 2002 and it ain't working too good under Vista Business.

Thanks, this 'roundabout' worked!
