Importing CSV (Windows) file

[Dominic Afonso]

When importing a Comma Seperated Values (Windows) file into a calendar in
Outlook 2007 I have not been able to prompt the duration field to auto fill.

The duration field in Outlook 2007 should be calculated from the start/end
times or the all day event check box.

If I import a CSV file the duration filed always stays blank.

I believe this is restricting me from showing the calendar events on an
Office Live Small Business - Business Application - Team Workspace - Calendar
that I have synced. Manually entered events on the same calendar have no
trouble syncing.

if the duration field is not listed as one of the fields that can be mapped,
you can't import it.

If start/end data are inputed manually then Duration autofills.

If start/end data are imported from a csv file the duration filed stays blank.

I am not trying to import the duration as it should always fill itself in.

You are uploading the appointments using the connect to outlook option? Does
outlook crash when the calendar is connected? (It did for me when I tried to
repro.)
